Sprinkle Budget Year End Report 2019

This fall I failed on spending my sprinkle budget at Wilton. I ended up having to go to Michaels and Target to spend every penny of that budget. You know how it goes, if you don't spend it, you don't get any next year. If ONLY that's how it actually worked, magic sprinkle money! Oh magic money!!
I volunteered to make cookies for an event at church and this one is perfect for kids. It's sweet, filled with sprinkles, and can be customized for any holiday or even with the color sprinkles you use. The recipe calls for 1/4 cup of sprinkles, but that's enough to put in the dough, it doesn't account for the sprinkles you use to coat the cookies - that's about another cup.
Make these cookies, have your kids help. Maybe you'll have sprinkles all over the floor, counter, yourself, the dog, but they are worth it. No really - they are!

Sprinkle Cookies
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 egg
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 Cup Rainbow sprinkles plus more for rolling

First you want to preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Next in n a large mixing bowl, combine your sugar and butter and mix well. Then mix in one egg and the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt and mix.
Now mix your dry ingredients into the wet ingredients.
Then add in 1/4 cup rainbow sprinkles and mix them in well.
Now form the dough into small balls and roll in a bowl of sprinkles.Then pop the cookies onto the lined baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes.
When they’re done let them cool on a wire rack and enjoy!
