  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened Can substitute with a plant-based alternative for dairy-free option.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until creamy and smooth.
  4. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and beat until fully combined.
  5. Gradually mix the flour mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined—be careful not to overmix.
  6. Gently fold in the rainbow sprinkles, ensuring they stay intact and do not melt.
  7. Using a small cookie scoop or a teaspoon, drop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each.
Baking
  1. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the edges turn lightly golden.
  2. Remove them from the oven and let the cookie bites cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
