Instructions
Notes
You don’t want to add your sprinkles too early into your dough. Add the sprinkles in at the end and mix until it is just combined.
Do not skip chilling the cookie dough. Chilling the dough prevents the cookies from spreading out too quickly once they’re in the oven and you won’t get the round fluffy cookies look like I have here.
Make sure your butter and egg are at room temperature so everything is mixed and baked evenly.
Even though it’s only 1 tablespoon, the cornstarch is essential for soft cookies so don’t skip it.
Use baking parchment or a silicone mat so your cookies don’t stick to your baking tray or cookie sheet.
While the centers may look soft when you pull the cookies out, they will firm up as it cools. If you leave them in the oven until the middles are firm, your cookies will overbake and be crunchy once they’ve come to room temperature.
You can leave the cookies to chill in the fridge overnight if you want to make these ahead of time.
Roll your dough into balls before chilling it as your dough will not be as malleable after it has chilled.
