Here’s the thing about Christmas, it requires cookies. You might have though they were optional, but they are not. Can you even imagine a Christmas without cookies?! Oh the horror! Cookies are such a big part of the holiday we even have partied just to celebrate cookies, some may call them Christmas cookie exchanges….either way, it’s all about those cookies.  And maybe there’s a generous message of love and gifting mixed up among the table of little bites of awesomeness. So if there’s one thing I know for sure it’s how to make an amazing chocolate chip cookies and how to use sprinkles. Today I’m sharing my favorite chocolate chip cookies with bonus Christmas sprinkles making them the ultimate chew Chocolate Chip Christmas Cookies. You guys will LOVE these things, promise.

Every Christmas needs a great cookie. These Chocolate Chip Christmas Cookies are the one! Soft,
Unless amazing, soft, buttery, chocolatey, giant cookies aren’t you thing. And if that’s the case we should probably talk…

SUPPIES

• 1 stick softened unsalted butter
• 3/4 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tsp butter extract
• 1 3.4oz instant vanilla pudding mix
• 2 1/4 cups flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 cup Nestle chocolate chips
• 1/2 Cup Sprinkles

Makes approx. 18 large cookies.

Step 1: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combined pudding mix, flour, and baking powder in a bowl, set aside.

Step 2: In a separate bowl, beat together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Add in eggs then extracts.

Step 3: Slowly mix in dry flour combination until a completely combined.

Step 4: Once your dough is ready, knead in chocolate chip and 1/4 cup of sprinkles, set remaining sprinkles aside.

Step 5: Roll into large balls about 1.5in across. (yes, they are HUGE)

Step 6: Dip the top of each cookie ball into remaining sprinkles.

Step 7: Bake on a parchment lined cookie sheet (several inches apart!) for 14-15 minutes at 350 degrees. You may need to adjust the baking temp depending on the size of your cookies. I recommend setting your timer for 10 minutes to start then keeping an eye on the first set to see just how long yours need. Because these cookies were so big I only baked about 6 at a time! Mine were perfect at 14 minutes.

If you try these cookies let me know! I hope they are absolute MAGIC!
