Make soft, chewy sugar cookies perfect for the holidays that require no dough chilling time.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup Christmas sprinkles (red, green, or mixed)
  • Extra sprinkles for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Fold in the 1/2 cup of Christmas sprinkles gently.
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between cookies.
  8. Lightly press the tops of the dough balls with your fingers and immediately press extra sprinkles onto the tops.
  9. Bake for 9 to 11 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers remain soft.
  10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For softer cookies, slightly underbake them by about one minute.
  • If your kitchen is very warm, chill the formed dough balls for 10 minutes before baking for easier handling.
  • You can substitute almond extract for half of the vanilla extract for a different flavor profile.
