Ingredients:
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Christmas-themed sprinkles (for decorating)
Directions:
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Cream the Butter and Sugar:
In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract, and mix until fully combined.
Mix in Dry Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing just until combined.
Form the Cookie Bites:
Roll the dough into small 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet about 1 inch apart. Press each ball down slightly to flatten it. Decorate the tops with festive sprinkles.
Bake the Cookies:
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Be careful not to overbake to keep the cookies soft and chewy.
Cool and Serve:
Allow the cookie bites to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. These cookies are perfect for serving at holiday parties or packaging as gifts!
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 8-10 minutes
Total Time: 25 minutes
Servings: About 40 cookie bites
Tips:
For added color and fun, divide the dough and add food coloring to create different shades of red, green, and white dough for the holidays.
These cookie bites store well in an airtight container for up to a week, making them perfect for gifting or preparing ahead of time.
