Equipment
- 1 Oven
- 2 Medium/Large Mixing Bowls
- 1 Handheld Mixer or Stand Mixer
- 2 Cookie Baking Sheets
- 1 Cookie Dough Scoop optional
- Parchment Paper
Ingredients
- 2 ¼ cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1 tsp Baking Soda
- ½ tsp Baking Powder
- 1 cup Unsalted Butter - softened
- 1 ½ cups Granulated Sugar
- 1 Large Egg
- 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 3 tbsp Milk
- ½ cup Patriotic Sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F and prepare your baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Grab a medium/large mixing bowl add in all-purpose flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Whisk or stir to combine.
- Grab a separate large mixing bowl and add in softened sticks of butter and granulated sugar. Cream together using a handheld mixer or stand mixer. This should take around 2 minutes.
- Next, beat in the egg and vanilla extract until combined. Carefully pour the dry flour mixture (from Step #2) into this wet mixture. Mix until just combined.
- Add the milk and mix until the cookie dough is smooth. Carefully fold in the patriotic sprinkles (recommend with a spatula) and do not overmix to protect colors from bleeding.
- Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheet. Avoid my mistake (see video above) and ensure the dough balls are at least 2″ apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven at 375°F for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are golden brown, you know the routine
- Carefully remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool for at least 5 minutes.
