To make the dough

Step 1

Cream the softened butter and sugars until light and fluffy, scraping down the bowl a few times.

Step 2

Add in half of the beaten egg (about 41g) and a few drops or 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, combine all the dry ingredients: plain flour, bicarbonate of soda, funfetti sprinkles, mini white chocolate chips, and white chocolate chips.

Step 4

Slowly add the dry mix to the butter mixture and mix until just combined.

Now, you have the dough ready for your cookies. To make 30 cookies:

Step 1

Divide the dough into 30 equal portions.

Step 2

Roll each portion into a ball.

Step 3

Place the balls on baking sheets.

Step 4

Bake at 170°C (130°C on the dial for a large oven) for approximately 6-7 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Be sure to keep an eye on them as they bake and adjust the time if needed.

Step 5

After the first bake, gently flatten and shape the cookies using a round cutter, if desired.

Step 6

Bake again for another 5-6 minutes, or until the cookies are fully set but still slightly soft in the center.

Step 7

Remove from the oven and allow them to cool on a wire rack.

TOP TIP
