Chef Helena's Party Sprinkle Cookies

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
• 2 teaspoon baking powder
• ¼ salt
• ½ cup butter soften to room temp
• ¾ cup white sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• ¾ cup sprinkles

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
3. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat butter until smooth. Cream in sugar, until light and fluffy. Add egg, vanilla extract, mixing until combined and scraping the sides of the bowl as needed. Add in flour mixture and mix until just combined. Add 1/2 cup sprinkles and stir by hand until combined.
4. Scoop a heaping tablespoon of dough and roll into a ball (or use a 1 1/2 tablespoon scoop). Place 1/4 cup sprinkles on a plate and press the tops of the dough balls in additional sprinkles (optional). Place dough balls onto prepared baking sheet leaving about an inch for spreading.
5. Bake for 8-10 minutes. The edges should be completely set, and the centers should look slightly under cooked, they will finish cooking while cooling on the baking sheet.
6. Place the baking sheets on wire racks to cool. Repeat with remaining dough once the baking sheets are completely cool.
