Soft, chewy, and loaded with chocolate chips and holiday sprinkles, these cookies are perfect for Santa or any holiday gathering. Easy to make and loved by all ages, they bring a bit of holiday cheer to every bite.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup red and green holiday sprinkles (or festive M&M’s)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until creamy and smooth (about 2 minutes). Add the vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  4. Combine Dry and Wet Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid over-mixing.
  5. Add Chocolate Chips and Sprinkles: Fold in the chocolate chips and holiday sprinkles (or M&M’s) until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  6. Scoop and Shape the Dough: Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake the Cookies: Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers still look soft. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For a more festive touch, press a few extra chocolate chips or sprinkles on top of each cookie dough ball before baking.
  • These cookies stay fresh in an airtight container for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
