Ingredients
Method
Step 1 – Prep the Oven & Butter
- Preheat oven to 350°F (convection). Beat room-temperature butter in a stand mixer or by hand for 3–5 minutes until slightly off-white.
Step 2 – Add Sugar
- Add granulated sugar and beat with the butter until fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Step 3 – Mix in Egg & Vanilla
- Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.
Step 4 – Form the Dough
- Add flour, baking soda, baking powder, and Halloween sprinkles. Fold until a cookie dough forms.
Step 5 – Test Cookie
- Use a 1/3 cup scoop (or desired size) to place a single dough ball on a tray. Bake this test cookie to check spread and oven temperature. Adjust if needed.
Step 6 – Bake Cookies
- Place remaining dough balls on the tray, spacing evenly. Flatten slightly if desired. Bake for 12–14 minutes (for 1/3 cup scoops).
Step 7 – Shape & Cool
- For perfectly round cookies, gently swirl a cup or bowl around each fresh cookie. Let sit on the tray for 10 minutes before removing.
Step 8 – Make Frosting
- Beat butter until slightly off-white. Add powdered sugar and heavy cream, then vanilla extract. Whip until fluffy.
Step 9 – Frost & Decorate
- Frost the cooled cookies and sprinkle with Halloween sprinkles. Store in the fridge for up to 10 days or at room temperature for up to a week.
