Ingredients 

Funfetti Sugar Cookie Dough

  • 3 cups (375 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp (1 tsp) baking soda
  • ½ tsp (0.5 tsp) baking powder
  • ½ tsp (0.5 tsp) salt
  • 1 cup (227 g) unsalted butter room temperature
  • 1 ½ cups (300 g) granulated sugar
  • 2 (2) large eggs room temperature
  • 3 tsp (3 tsp) vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp (1 tsp) almond extract
  • ½ cup (80 g) rainbow sprinkles

Additional Ingredients

  • cup (100 g) rainbow sprinkles for rolling the cookies

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350℉ (177℃). Line baking sheet pans with silicone baking mats or parchment paper. 
  • In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment or in a large mixing bowl with an electric hand mixer, cream the unsalted butter and granulated sugar for a few minutes until light and creamy. Add in the eggs, vanilla extract, and almond extract and mix until well combined.
  • Add in the flour mixture and mix on low speed until the cookie dough comes together. Fold in ½ cup of rainbow sprinkles until they are well dispersed throughout the cookie dough.
  • Portion the cookie dough using a large cookie scoop (3 tablespoons). Roll the cookie dough balls in the additional rainbow sprinkles and place on the prepared baking sheet pans, allowing room for spreading.
  • Bake the cookies for about 12 minutes until the edges are set and the centers are slightly underbaked. Cool the cookies on the pan for 2 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
