Description

These Cotton Candy Cookies are soft, chewy, and packed with sweet, nostalgic cotton candy flavor. Made with colorful swirls and a hint of cotton candy extract, they’re perfect for parties, holidays, or when you want a playful and delicious treat!

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp cotton candy extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup cotton candy sprinkles (or colorful nonpareils)
  • Optional: Pink and blue gel food coloring

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. Make the Cookie Dough:
    • In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
    • Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, and cotton candy extract until fully combined.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients:
    • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
    • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  4. Add Sprinkles and Color (Optional):
    • Fold in the cotton candy sprinkles.
    • If using food coloring, divide the dough into two bowls. Tint one portion pink and the other blue. Gently swirl the two colors together without overmixing to create a marbled effect.
  5. Shape the Cookies:
    • Scoop tablespoons of dough and roll into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  6. Bake:
    • Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers look slightly underbaked.
    • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. Serve and Enjoy:
    • Once cooled, serve and enjoy your colorful, cotton candy-flavored cookies!

Notes

  • Adjust the cotton candy extract to taste, as it can vary in strength.
  • Use pastel-colored sprinkles for an extra festive look.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
