- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup salted butter
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract or paste
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons jimmies sprinkles
- 2 ounces chopped white chocolate bars
Preheat oven to 350℉.
Spread flour in an even layer on a parchment paper-lined sheet pan. Bake 5 minutes. Alternatively, microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between, until it reaches 165°F. Let cool completely.
In a mixing bowl, beat softened butter, powdered sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Mix in heavy cream and vanilla extract until smooth.
Stir in the cooled flour and salt. Mix until a soft dough forms.
Gently mix in sprinkles and white chocolate.
Enjoy with a spoon or refrigerate 5-10 minutes then scoop and roll in 1-tablespoon size balls. If desired, add extra sprinkles on the outside. Store in a container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
Storage
-
Store leftover cookie dough in an airtight container or wrapped tightly in the fridge for up to 1 week.
-
You can also freeze leftovers in an airtight container, or in wrapped individual portions for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge before enjoying again.
Tips
- Let heat-treated flour cool completely before mixing. This is essential, or it will melt the butter.
- Add heavy cream gradually. Do this slowly, as you may not need all of it depending on the flour texture.
- Chill the dough. This is helpful if you want firmer, scoopable balls. Even just a few minutes in the fridge makes a difference.
- Use sprinkles that won't bleed color. Jimmies or flat shaped sprinkles are the best choice. Nonpareils or tiny round ball sprinkles will bleed their color into the dough.
