Hi Bold Bakers!
Sprinkles to a baker are just another one of our tools to make our desserts even more fabulous! Sprinkles come in all colors and shapes, but we never think that they can made from anything other than just sugar.
Recently, I covered the top of my Chocolate Chip Cookie Cheesecake with Cookie Sprinkles! Yes you read that right. My cheesecake was layer upon layer of cookie so I wanted to make sure that even the decoration was a cookie. When I pick a theme, I commit to it.
Essentially they are teenie tiny Cookies but I prefer Cookie Sprinkle. I saw the idea for Cookie Sprinkles on Just Putzing Around The Kitchen . I just can’t believe I never thought of a Cookie Sprinkle myself!
The cookie dough is my recipe for The Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookie. Not to boast but it is hands down the BEST cookie dough I have ever made.
Use these Cookie Sprinkles to spruce up any cake, cupcake, or dessert! They will be most welcomed.

Cookie Sprinkles
Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp (1oz/30g) butter
- 3 Tbsp light-brown sugar
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 tbsp whisked egg*
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- 5 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1/8 tsp baking soda (this is a ½ of a ¼ tsp)
- 4 tbsp chocolate chips (I use dark chocolate)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350oF (180oC).
- Place butter in a microwave safe mixing bowl and melt
- To the melted butter, add brown sugar, salt, egg, vanilla, flour and baking soda. Stir with a spoon until well combined.
- Mix in the chocolate chips.
- With the spoon, scoop tiny scoops of dough. Roughly you will only get around 1 chocolate chip per cookie. That's how small they should be. Place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet
- Bake in preheated oven for 7-10 minutes, until cookie is lightly golden.
- Serve warm or allow to cool on a wire rack then store in an airtight container for 4 days.

Am I missing something? I was looking for the Cookie sprinkles, but this recipe is for Choco-Chio Cookies?
I love baking these with my lil girls..we loved these cute cookies❤❤❤
Can white sugar be used in place of brown sugar?
Hi can I have the recipe in grams?
Just made this recipe today, love it. Will give it a go with white Choc as well.
This was a great recipe to try while in self isolation. It requires very few ingredients and is so adorable!
I made these before and they were really yummy. Should I scoop 1/4 teaspoon for the dough and should I chill it?
