Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 2/3 cups all purpose white flour
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 stick salted butter (1/2 cup), melted
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 1/4 cup white sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
Add-ins
- 1/2 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup Christmas red/green/white mix sprinkles (preferably flat confetti sprinkles)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a small bowl, combine the flour, ground cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Stir well with a fork to evenly distribute the ingredients.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the melted butter, light brown sugar, and white sugar. Mix together until fully combined. Then add the egg and mix well, followed by the vanilla extract.
- Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Add the dry flour mixture to the wet mixture and stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Fold in Add-ins: Using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, gently stir in the mini semi-sweet chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, and Christmas sprinkles until evenly distributed.
- Shape Cookies: Using a 2-tablespoon cookie scooper or spoon, place heaping mounds of dough onto the prepared cookie sheets, spacing them evenly. This recipe makes 16 cookies.
- Bake: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 11 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow them to remain on the cookie sheet for at least 10 minutes to finish baking and set. For less gooey cookies, bake for 12 minutes instead.
- Cool: After resting on the cookie sheet, transfer the cookies to a cooling rack to cool completely before serving.
Notes
- If you prefer less cinnamon, start with 1/4 teaspoon and adjust to taste.
- Flat confetti sprinkles work better than harder types for texture and flavor.
- Adjust baking time if your oven runs hotter or colder to avoid overbaking or underbaking.
- Using melted butter ensures chewier cookies.
- Letting cookies rest on the baking sheet after removing from the oven helps them set without becoming hard.
