Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 14 tablespoons butter room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract see note in post under "How to Make Sugar Cookies with Sprinkles"
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 1/2 cup sprinkles

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer, beat together the room temperature butter and the sugar. Beat for 3 to 6 minutes until light and fluffy ensuring that you beat plenty of air into the butter.
  • Add the eggs, one at a time. Then add the vanilla extract and the almond extract.
  • Pour the flour mixture into the wet ingredients. Turn the mixer on low, beating for about 10 seconds. Now turn the mixer on high for 2 to 3 seconds or just until all of the flour is combined. You may need so scrape down the mixing bowl and beat another 2 to 3 seconds.
  • Gently stir in the sprinkles.
  • Using a 1 1/2 tablespoon cookie scoop, scoop out the cooke dough, roll into balls and lightly press down on the prepared baking sheet. Place the cookies 2 inches apart to account for spreading.
  • Bake for 10 minutes, rotating once in the middle, or until the edges of the cookies just barely begin to turn golden brown. Remove from the oven and use a spatula to transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an air tight container for up to one week.
