Ingredients

1 1/3 cups all purpose flour GF flour can also be used
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp kosher salt
6 tbsp unsalted butter
1/3 cup light brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 large egg and 1 egg yolk
3/4 cup mini white chocolate chips
1/4 cup red, white, blue sprinkles

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350F and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
To the bowl with melted butter, add the brown sugar and sugar. Mix in with a spatula until it turns pasty, then mix egg, egg yolk, and vanilla until smooth.
Pour in the dry ingredients and use a rubber spatula to fold to combine. Leave a few streaks of flour; fold the sprinkles in until just dispersed.
Using a large cookie scoop (OR ¼ cup measuring cup) scoop the cookies onto the baking sheets and bake for 12-14 minutes. Rotate the baking sheets halfway through baking.
The cookies are done when the middles are JUST set and have a light golden ring around the edges. When they come out, bang the pans twice to get air out. With the inside of a fork smooth the edges to create more perfect circles if needed.
Let cool for 10 minutes on pan. Transfer to a cooling rack to cool for at least 15 minutes before eating.
Enjoy!
