Ingredients

1¼ cup sugar
1 cup butter, softened
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons peppermint extract (can be substituted with vanilla extract)
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
2½ cups all purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup candy sprinkles
1 cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs and beat into the mixture.
Next, beat in the peppermint extract.
Add the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. On low speed, beat the dry ingredients into the butter and egg mixture.
Next, stir in 1/2 cup of the candy sprinkles and all of the mini chocolate chips.
Use a small cookie scoop to portion the cookie dough into 1 1/2 tablespoon sized mounds. Gently roll the tops of the cookie dough mounds into the remaining sprinkles.
Place onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for exactly 15 minutes. Remove the cookies from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack to finish cooling.
