Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 1.25 cups Granulated sugar
- 2 Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons Red food coloring
- 0.25 teaspoons Blue food coloring
- 1 cup White chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup Red, white, and blue sprinkles
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes, using a handheld or stand mixer.
Add the eggs one at a time to the butter-sugar mixture, beating well after each addition. Then mix in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Divide the dough evenly into three separate bowls. Leave one portion plain, mix red food coloring into the second bowl, and mix blue food coloring into the third bowl.
Fold in 1/3 cup of white chocolate chips into each portion of the dough.
Take a small amount of each colored dough and gently roll them together into a ball to create a tri-color marbled effect. Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Top each cookie with a few red, white, and blue sprinkles before baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your festive Red, White, and Blue Cookies!
