Description
Delicious Birthday Cake Sugar Cookies that evoke festive celebrations with their sweet flavors and fun sprinkles.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups white cake mix
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/4 cups white chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup rainbow sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and prepare your cookie sheets with parchment paper.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, white cake mix, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- Cream the butter and sugars: Using a handheld or stand mixer with a paddle attachment, beat together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Incorporate eggs and vanilla: Add the eggs and vanilla extract, then scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure thorough mixing.
- Combine dry and wet: With the mixer on low, gradually add your dry mixture to the wet ingredients until well combined.
- Fold in chocolate chips and sprinkles: Gently mix in white chocolate chips and sprinkles for that signature birthday cake vibe.
- Chill the dough: Chill the dough in the fridge for a minimum of 60 minutes to prevent spreading.
- Scoop and shape: Once chilled, scoop out about 1.5 tablespoons of dough and place them evenly on the prepared cookie sheets. Press a few extra white chocolate chips and a sprinkle of rainbow sprinkles on top.
- Bake: Place cookies into the preheated oven and bake for about 10 minutes, or until the edges are golden.
- Cool: After baking, let the cookies cool on the sheet for 5-10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Serve with vanilla ice cream or alongside a colorful fruit salad for a delightful experience.
