Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 piece large egg
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 6 colors gel food coloring (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple)
- 0.5 cup rainbow sprinkles
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
Divide the dough evenly into six portions. Place each portion in a small bowl.
Add a few drops of gel food coloring to each portion, creating six vibrant colors (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple). Knead the coloring into the dough until evenly distributed.
Take a small piece of each colored dough and gently press them together to form a single rainbow-colored ball. Repeat this process until all the dough is used up.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Roll each multicolored dough ball in the rainbow sprinkles, pressing lightly to adhere the sprinkles to the surface.
Place the sprinkled dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just set but the centers are still soft.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your colorful Jazzbow Cookies!
