Jumbo Sprinkle Cookies

January 24, 2019 by layercakeparade

Have a nostalgic bite with these classic Jumbo Sprinkle Cookies. Chewy in the center and crispy on the edges is the best of both worlds!

Jumbo Sprinkle Cookies


You saw these at bakeries or old school delicatessens. Places where the owners leaned over the counter to shake your parent’s hand and pinch your cheek.

Desserts in these places were always larger than at those fussy, stuffy restaurants. These cookies were large and their size wasn’t just for dramatic effect. The large size was needed, because you always finished all of it, even at your child stature.

The same hasn’t changed. You’ve grown. Maybe you eat your spinach and maybe you go to meetings where you have to CC and forward a slur of people. But these cookies are still wanted. The yearning hasn’t changed. Not now. These Jumbo Sprinkle Cookies have the following characteristics:

Chewy
Crispy
Buttery
Moist

In fact, the oil is what gives these Jumbo Sprinkle Cookies moisture and texture. Chilling the dough prevents it from spreading, and this process produces that much desired chewy cookie center.

Jimmie sprinkles are the optimal sprinkle to use. They bake up soft, melding, not interfering, with the cookies texture—all while still providing a bright, happy jolt of color to the exterior.

Instructions
To make the Jumbo Sprinkle Cookies:

  2. Cream butter and sugar until just combined, add oil, and beat until smooth about 2 minutes, scraping bowl frequently. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Scrape bowl and paddle.

  6. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  7. Place cookies 2 inches apart on a parchment lined baking sheet.
  8. Bake cookies 12 to 16 minutes, rotating halfway. Adjust the baking time for a minutes more if baking cookies directly from the freezer.
