Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 2 1/2 cups (310g) all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup (170g) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup (110g) light brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups (255g) white chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup (80g) rainbow sprinkles (jimmies work best)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- Cream butter and sugars: In a large bowl, beat butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy (about 2 minutes).
- Add eggs and vanilla: Mix in eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. Beat until smooth.
- Combine wet and dry ingredients: Gradually add the flour mixture, mixing just until combined.
- Fold in white chocolate chips and sprinkles, being careful not to overmix.
- Scoop & shape: Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to drop dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing cookies about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are set and slightly golden. The centers will look soft but will firm up as they cool.
- Cool: Let cookies sit on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Sprinkles: Use jimmies (long sprinkles), as nonpareils (small round sprinkles) may bleed color into the dough.
- Chilling Dough: If you want extra chewy cookies, chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
- Freezing: Freeze unbaked dough balls for up to 3 months. Bake straight from frozen, adding an extra 1-2 minutes to the bake time.
