Christmas Sprinkle Cookies

I really love making cookies during the holidays. But what cookie could be more perfect for Christmas than these super cute Christmas Sprinkle Cookies? Soft and chewy little sugar cookies rolled in red, green and white nonpareils are so much fun.

I don’t know about you, but bringing cookies to everyone on my list is the best part of the holiday season. I grew up in the kitchen with my mom, especially during the holidays. She was quite the baker and I’m now passing on that tradition to my kids.

I want them to remember our time over the holidays baking away the days as we count down to Christmas. It is such a special time and those are memories I hold dear. I hope they do too.

Ingredients

• 1 Stick butter softened
• 2 Large eggs
• 1 1/2 Cups granulated sugar
• 1/4 Cup cream cheese softened
• 2 1/2 Cups all purpose flour
• 1 Teaspoon almond extract
• 1 Teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 Cup sprinkles nonpareils
• 1 Teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 Teaspoon salt
• 2 Teaspoons corn starch

 Instructions

1. In bowl of stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment, or a large bowl using hand mixer, cream together the butter, cream cheese, sugar, eggs, and extracts until light and fluffy. About 5 minutes.
2. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula. Add the flour, corn starch, baking soda, and salt. Mix together on low/medium speed for one minute, until combined.
3. Refrigerate dough for two hours before baking.
4. When dough is done chilling, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper, or spray with non-stick cooking spray.
5. Pour the sprinkles into a medium bowl, and roll tablespoon sized balls of dough into the sprinkles.
6. Place the cookies onto prepared baking sheet, spacing 2 inches apart.
7. Bake for 9-12 minutes. These should not turn golden brown, and will still look wet when they come out of the oven.
8. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 3-5 minutes before moving to a wire rack to cool completely.
