Sprinkle Sugar Cookies

• 1/2 c. butter, melted
• 100 g. vegetable shortening
• 100 g. sugar
• 60 g. powdered sugar
• 1 egg
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 2 tsp vanilla
• 300 g. all purpose flour
• sprinkles of your choice

In a bowl, whisk together butter and shortening until smooth. Add in sugar, powdered sugar, egg, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and vanilla and whisk again until creamy and smooth. Add in flour and, using a spoon, stir until combined.

Pour some sprinkles into a small, shallow dish.  Roll cookie dough into walnut sized balls then dip/roll half of the ball into the sprinkles then place onto a silicone mat lined cookie sheet, sprinkle side up. Make sure to keep 3-4 inches between the cookies on the pan. Using the bottom of a drinking glass, gently press the cookies flat until they are about a half inch thick.

Bake at 375 degrees for 10-12 minutes. Allow to cool on the pan for a few minutes before transfering to a cooling rack for 10 minutes. Once cooled, place cookies into an air-tight container.
