Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients:

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients:

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Additional Ingredients:

  • 1 cup cotton candy flavored candy pieces or cotton candy extract
  • 1 cup colorful sprinkles

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing well until combined.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
  4. Add Flavor: Gently fold in the cotton candy flavored candy pieces and colorful sprinkles.
  5. Shape the Cookies: Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  6. Bake: Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers will look slightly underbaked; they will continue to cook as they cool.
  7. Cool and Enjoy: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your delightful cotton candy cookies!

Notes

  • For extra cotton candy flavor, consider using cotton candy extract in place of or in addition to the candy pieces.
  • Experiment with different colors of sprinkles to customize the cookies for various events or holidays.
