Halloween Sprinkle Cookies

Directions

1. In a large mixing bowl add the butter, white sugar and brown sugar. Using a stand mixer, mix on high until they're fully combined and light and fluffy in texture.
2. Add the eggs into the mixture (one at a time) to the sugar mixture and mix until well combined.
3. Add in the vanilla extract and continue to mix together.
4. In a separate large mixing bowl add flour, cocoa powder, flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt and whisk to combine the dry ingredients.
5. Slow the mixer to medium speed. Add flour mixture into the butter and sugar mix, 1 cup at a time so it's easier to mix together. Mix until flour is fully combined with the wet ingredients.
6. Remove the mixing bowl from the mixer. Add in the chocolate chips and 1 cup of Halloween sprinkles and use your hands or wooden spoon to fold them into the dough.
7. Cover the dough in the mixing bowl with plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
8. Preheat oven to 420 degrees F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
9. Using an ice cream scoop, scoop out the sugar cookie dough and create cookie dough balls, placing them on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat until all the cookie dough has been used. Set the baking sheets to the side.
10. In a small bowl add 1 cup of sprinkles. Roll each of the cookie dough balls in the sprinkles and slightly flatten them before putting them back on the baking sheet 1-2 inches apart.
11. Add the candy eyes randomly and press them in lightly to secure them to the cookie dough.
12. Bake cookies, 1 pan at a time, for 13-14 minutes.
