Ingredients
- Salt
- Butter
- Vanilla extract
- Sugar
- Baking soda
- Egg
- Flour
- Vanilla
- Egg yolk
- Almond extract
- Cream
Directions
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees. In a mixing bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda and salt for 20 seconds, then put the bowl aside.
- Add the butter and sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attached, and beat them together until creamy. Mix in the egg, followed by the egg yolk, vanilla extract and almond extract. Add the vanilla pudding mix and stir it in.
- Turn the mixer to low and gradually work in the dry mixture until the dough comes together. It may look dry at the beginning, but it will pull into a dough. Mix in 2/3 cup sprinkles.
- Portion the dough with a medium 1 1/2-inch cookie scoop, or use 2 Tbsp of dough at a time, and roll each portion into a ball. Arrange the dough on baking sheets lined with Silpat or parchment paper, leaving 2-inches between cookies. Press a few extra sprinkles lightly onto the tops.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 9 – 10 minutes. Let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for several minutes, then move them to a wire rack to finish cooling. Store them in an airtight container.
