Christmas Sprinkle Cookies

A Christmas Cookie that requires no rolling or shaping!

2 cups all-purpose flour 1½ teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon cornstarch ½ teaspoon salt 1 cup unsalted butter 1 cup granulated sugar 1 large egg 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1 cup red & green nonpareils

INGREDIENTS

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, cornstarch, and salt. Set aside.

Use a stand mixer, or a mixing bowl with an electric mixer, and cream together the butter and sugar until light in color and fluffy.

Beat in the egg and vanilla extract and mix until combine.

Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix on low speed until the dough comes together. It will be sticky and seem wet, but that's ok.

Create a ball of dough and place it on a sheet of plastic wrap and wrap it up tightly. Place the dough in the fridge to chill for 1 hour.

Use a 2 tablespoon cookie scoop to scoop the dough and roll it into a ball. Roll the dough ball in the sprinkles until it's well coated. Place 12 cookies per cookie sheet.

Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the edges are slightly golden brown (still pretty pale) and the cookies are set.

Let the cookies cool on the warm cookie sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
