egg yolk

tsp baking soda

tsp salt

cup sprinkles

oz cream cheese

egg

Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 F. Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Set aside. In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and BOTH sugars. Add the egg, egg yolk, and extracts. Whisk until combined. Add baking powder, baking soda and salt. Stir until combined. Add the all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup at a time and mix until flour is almost incorporated. Add in the sprinkles and fold until just combined. Scoop the cookie dough and place onto the prepared pan with couple inches in between each dough ball. Slightly flatten each dough ball. Bake for 11-13 minutes until the edges are slightly golden brown and the center no longer looks wet. After removing from oven, allow the cookies to cool in the pan before transferring to a wire rack. To make frosting: In a large bowl, beat the unsalted butter and cream cheese until light and creamy. Add in the powdered sugar. Beat until creamy. Add in milk 1/2 tbsp at a time until you reach your desired consistency. Pipe or spread frosting on top of the cooled cookies! Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.View original recipe
