Ingredients

Instructions

  • Beat together the butter and sugar with a hand held mixer or a stand up mixer.  Then add in the eggs, milk and vanilla extract.  Mix until combined.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder and salt.
  • Then gradually stir the dry ingredients (flour mixture) into the wet ingredients (butter mixture) until a dough forms.  Cover and chill the dough for at least 2 hours.
  • Then preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Use a teaspoon or cookie scoop to drop the cookie dough onto a prepared baking sheet into round balls.  Flatten the cookie dough out slightly by using the bottom of a glass dipped in granulated sugar.
  • Then bake for 12-15 minutes until the cookies are slightly golden brown.  Make sure to rotate the baking sheets halfway through the baking time to ensure that the cookies are baked evenly.
  • Let the cookies sit on the baking sheet for 5 minutes.  Then move the cookies to wire racks to cool completely.
  • Then place the melting chocolate wafers in a microwave safe bowl, heat in 30 second intervals, stirring after each interval until the chocolate is melted and creamy.
  • Dip half of the cookies in the melted chocolate.
  • Place the cookies on parchment paper or wax paper.  Top with the sprinkles and allow the cookies to dry completely.
  • Then the cookies are ready to serve and enjoy!

Notes

*Store any leftover cookies at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 1 week.  Keep a piece of bread in the container with the cookies to keep them soft. 
*Make sure to not over bake the cookies.  They should be slightly golden brown and they will continue to set once they cool.
