Ingredients

  • ½ cup dairy-free butter, softened to room temperature (1 stick; recommend Country Crock Plant Butter sticks)
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ cup rainbow sprinkles (double check to ensure dairy-free)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In another large mixing bowl, cream together the dairy-free butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the egg and vanilla. Mix until well combined.
  4. In another medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until combined. Fold in the sprinkles.
  6. Portion out the cookie dough onto the parchment-lined baking sheets using a 1 ½ tablespoon cookie scoop (or just heaping spoonfuls). Bake at 350 degrees F for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies no longer look wet on top.
  7. Let cool on the pan, then enjoy.

Recipe Notes

  • Do not melt the butter or the cookies can spread too much. The butter should only be softened to room temperature.
