Make This Recipe
Ingredients
1 cup butter, softened
1 ½ cups granulated sugar
2 Eggland’s Best eggs, large
2 tsp vanilla extract
½ tsp almond extract
3 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
½ tsp baking powder
¼ tsp salt
12 oz semi-sweet chocolate, melted for dipping
Colored sprinkles
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- Using a hand or stand mixer, cream the butter and sugar until creamy.
- Add the eggs, extracts, baking powder and salt. Mix until combined, then scrape down the bowl once.
- Add the flour in two parts, mixing well after each addition.
- Wrap the dough in saran wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Remove the dough from the fridge and turn it out on to a clean, well-floured surface. Roll the dough to ¼ inch thickness, adding more flour as needed.
- Use a cookie cutter to cut the dough into shapes, then place them on a lined or well-greased cookie sheet. Place the cut out dough in the freezer for an additional 10 minutes. Remove the pan from the freezer and bake for 7-10 minutes, or until the edges just begin to brown.
- Melt the chocolate in a small bowl while the cookies cool to room temperature.
- Once the cookies have cooled, dip half of each cookie into the melted chocolate, then add sprinkles. Allow the chocolate to set, then enjoy!
