Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup rainbow baking sprinkles
  • Optional: 1/2 cup white chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. Cream butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  2. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in vanilla.
  3. Whisk flour, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl.
  4. Gradually mix dry ingredients into wet ingredients until just combined.
  5. Gently fold in rainbow sprinkles.
  6. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto prepared baking sheets.
  7. Bake at 350°F for 10–12 minutes until edges are lightly golden.
  8. Cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

Use baking sprinkles to prevent color bleeding. Do not overmix the dough to keep cookies soft and chewy. Chill dough briefly for thicker cookies if desired.
