Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour and baking soda. Set aside.

  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

  4. Beat in the vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time, until well combined.

  5. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until the dough comes together.

  6. Gently fold in the holiday sprinkles, being careful not to overmix.

  7. Using a cookie scoop or spoon, scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls.

  8. Place the cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

  9. Using the palm of your hand or a flat-bottomed glass, gently press down on each cookie ball to slightly flatten them.

  10. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.

  11. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

  12. Enjoy these Kid Friendly Holiday Cookies with a glass of milk or a cup of hot cocoa for a delightful holiday treat!
