Make these soft, chewy Christmas sprinkle sugar cookies without chilling the dough. They are easy to prepare, loaded with festive red and green sprinkles, and perfect for holiday baking, cookie exchanges, or gifting.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup Christmas sprinkles (red, green, and white mix)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until just combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined into a soft dough. Do not overmix.
  6. Gently fold in the Christmas sprinkles until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  7. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough and roll them into balls. Place the balls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between them.
  8. Gently flatten each dough ball slightly with the bottom of a glass or your palm.
  9. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers still look slightly soft.
  10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For extra festive color, roll the dough balls in extra sprinkles before flattening them.
  • These bakery style sugar cookies stay softest when stored in an airtight container at room temperature.
  • If you prefer a firmer cookie for stacking, bake for an additional 1 to 2 minutes.
