- 1 piece large egg
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 190 grams all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons salt

- 75 grams chocolate chips (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until smooth and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Step 3
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl, and mix until well combined.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Step 6
Fold in the rainbow sprinkles and chocolate chips (if using) until evenly distributed.
Step 7
Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet and form it into a large, evenly-shaped circle about 1.5 cm (½ inch) thick.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.
Step 9
Allow the cookie to cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Once cooled, decorate the cookie as desired with icing, additional sprinkles, or candles for a festive touch. Slice and serve!
