Instructions
Bring your eggs to room temperature. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
In a medium bowl, mix together the sugar, Extra Virgin Olive Oil (also amazing with McEvoy Ranch Agrumato Method Olive Oils), and vanilla. Whisk in the egg + egg yolk until mixture is completely combined and smooth. Add liquid ingredients to dry and use a wooden spoon to gently mix. Gently stir in 1/4 cup of sprinkles (Holiday, Valentine, Spring, or Summer colors). Cover and chill the dough for at least two hours or overnight.
Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Add 1/2 cup of sprinkles to a small bowl. Scoop cookies 1.5 TBP in size, rolling the dough into smooth balls – the cookies spread more evenly when rolled. Roll each dough ball in sprinkles (optional). I only rolled the top and sides of my dough balls. Place cookies 2 inches apart on your parchment covered baking sheet and slightly press down on each dough ball. Note: they will spread.
Bake cookies at 350°F for 5-7 minutes or until cookies have spread and puffed. Be careful not to over-bake them! Let cookies rest on baking sheet for 1-2 minutes before moving to a cooling rack. Cookies will deflate and soften as they sit.
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature.
