Easy sugar cookies only 3 ingredients!

Ingredients:

1cup unsalted butter , room temperature

2/3 cup + 3 tablespoons granulated sugar , divided

2 cups all-purpose flour 

optional:

1 teaspoon vanilla 

rainbow sprinkles

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, using a handheld electric mixer, beat together butter and 2/3 cup sugar until combined. (It will be a little gritty – that's ok.)

Add in flour and blend well (then blend in the vanilla, if using.)

Using a cookie scoop, roll the dough into 1-inch balls.

Gently roll the balls in the remaining 3 tablespoons of sugar until lightly coated; transfer to the baking sheets 2 inches apart.

With the bottom of a measuring cup or glass, press down on the balls to flatten. Put your sprinkles on (if using) and lightly press down again just so they stick.

Bake for 14-16 minutes or until just slightly golden around the edges and on the bottom.

Remove form the oven and let cool on the baking sheets for at least 10-15 minutes. Enjoy!
