Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Add in the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Gently fold in your festive sprinkles using a spatula, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto your prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each one.
- Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
