Funfetti Chocolate Chip Cookies

When your little girl can’t decide between chocolate chip cookies and funfetti cookies, you create a recipe that is both of them combined. I mean chocolate chips and sprinkles go hand in hand like peanut butter and jelly go together. This is such a fun cookie to make, it is like a party in a cookie to me.

 

Must haves in the cookies.

  1. Brown butter not only adds flavor but adds chewiness to the cookies.
  2. Brown sugar and sugar in equal amounts. Brown sugar for softness and sugar to bring the sugar cookie taste to the cookie.
  3. Good vanilla…vanilla makes everything better.
  4. A little bit of cornstarch for the softness and chewiness to this cookie.
  5. Salt enhances all flavors, especially chocolate.
  6. A good chocolate, I love Ghirardelli chocolate chips
  7. Dye free Sprinkles

Here are some of my tips for these cookies.

  1. Room temperature eggs, because if you don’t you will have scrambled eggs in your cookie dough and that is just gross.
  2. Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes. This will help the dough too firm up a little bit, so it doesn’t spread as it bakes.

All these things help to make these cookies so soft and chewy.

So grab your mixing bowl, your ingredients and your favorite baking buddy and make these cookies. While you are making them, have a little dance party in your kitchen and have lots of fun. Make those memories, you won’t forget them and neither will your kids.
