Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven to 350° Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with silicone liner or parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add egg, sour cream, salt, and vanilla extract until fully combined, scraping the sides as needed.
- In a small bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
- Add the flour mixture to the large bowl and mix until just combined. Scraping the sides as needed.
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, divide the dough into 1-inch balls. Place the dough balls on the baking tray with approximately 2-inches between each ball. Using a flat surface, press down on each ball to create a disc.
- Baking for 10 to 12 minutes or until very lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for another 5 minutes. Then remove the cookie from the sheet and transfer them to a cooking rack to fully cool.
- In a large bowl, whisk together butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, salt, heavy cream, and food coloring (or gel).
- Spread the frosting on the top of the cooled cookies, the layer should be relatively thin and leave a small border of the cooking on the outermost edge. Decorate with sprinkles as desired.
Notes
If you use salted butter, remove the salt from the recipe.
