Sprinkle Cookies

July 11, 2012 by bblondie 22 Comments

Let’s talk cookies today!  You can’t beat a good cookie, and in my opinion, rainbow sprinkles make cookies even better.  Actually, I think rainbow sprinkles pretty much make life in general a whole lot better, but that’s just me.  So I set out to make a sprinkle happy cookie, and after grueling amounts of testing and tasting, get ready to preheat your ovens!


I know it’s really hot and you’re probably not to keen on the idea of turning that thing in your kitchen called an oven on right now, but just hear me out.  The cookies are made with light brown sugar giving them an earthy sweetness.  They bake flat crisping ever so slightly around the edges, but always remaining perfectly chewy in the middle.  Every few bites or so, you’ll notice little flecks of vanilla bean peeking through a sea of sprinkles assuring you this was a very good decision.  Finally there’s the sprinkle factor.  They’re seriously bursting with rainbow sprinkles which, if you’re anything like me, will make you smile.  While we’re on the subject of sprinkles, please use sprinkles, not nonpareils when making these.  I don’t like those sprinkle impostors very much.

I think that pretty much wraps it up guys.  I hope you’re on board by now cause I’m ready to whip up another batch! Enjoy 🙂

    These are gorgeous. Do they work in an easy bake oven? Cuz I am so not keen on turning my other oven on at all. Lol. Saving this for a cool day cuz a girl has to get her sprinkle fix now and again.

    Finally made these but didn’t like the available sprinkles here in Australia – they just didn’t have the right look so I used Dark Choc Chips, egg replacer and Organic Spelt Flour – we have some food intolerance issues in the house. I need to tweak it a bit as it was way too fatty when cooked – the loads of yummy butter combined with the choc chip – lol – but OMG the cookie dough tasted just like the cookie dough in the icecream – so basically we ate the dough instead of cooking it – lol

    Thanks for the recipe.
