Softbatch No-Roll Holiday Sprinkles Cookies - featured image

Easy, cozy, and chewy no-roll cookies perfect for the festive season, featuring buttery richness and colorful holiday sprinkles.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (227g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup (165g) packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 3 cups (375g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup holiday sprinkles (nonpareils or jimmies recommended)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter with granulated sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla extract and mix until combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just incorporated. Avoid overmixing.
  6. Fold in the holiday sprinkles gently. Optionally, add mini chocolate chips or chopped nuts.
  7. Drop generous tablespoon-sized mounds of dough about 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheet. No rolling required.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are set but centers look soft and slightly underbaked.
  9. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Enjoy fresh or store in an airtight container for several days.

Notes

If dough is too sticky to drop, chill in the fridge for 15 minutes. Do not overbake; remove when edges are set but centers still jiggle slightly. Rest cookies on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to wire rack to maintain chewiness. Store with a slice of bread in an airtight container to keep cookies soft longer.
