Ingredients

  • 6 Tablespoons Softened Butter (Dairy or Non-Dairy)
  • 3/4 Cup Sugar
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 1/2 Cups Gluten-Free All Purpose Baking Flour, see Notes
  • 1 1/2 Teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1/4 Teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 Cup Sprinkles

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350° Fahrenheit and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • Beat the butter and sugar with either a hand or stand mixer until light and fluffy. Add in egg and vanilla extract, beat again to combine.
  • Add in the flour, baking powder, and salt. Beat together until a dough forms, then gently mix in the sprinkles until the sprinkles are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
