Preparation Steps

• Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
• In a large bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
• Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
• In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
• Place the Easter sprinkles in a shallow bowl. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough and roll each ball in the sprinkles to coat thoroughly. Place the coated dough balls about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
• Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are set. The cookies will be soft.
• Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
