I’m that type of person that hoards sprinkles, cupcake toppings, cake toppings, different icings; basically any and all baking toppings and add-ins. So recently when I was rummaging through my pantry on a Sunday afternoon and spied a bag of Sno-Caps and a giant jar of rainbow sprinkles I thought, why not mix it up by making Funfetti Chocolate Chip Cookies. I mean sprinkles make people happy, and chocolate chip cookies make people happy, so Funfetti Chocolate Chip Cookies seemed like the unicorn of happiness.
The recipe is easy, and really one of those eyeballing recipes; a little bit more of this a little bit more of that if you get my drift. I start with the classic Tollhouse Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe found on the back of the bag; it’s not broken, so why try to fix it! And then when it comes to adding in the chocolate chips I add an additional cup of Sno-Caps, one cup of mini white chocolate chips, and an entire jar of rainbow sprinkles. This will make your cookies extra extra chocolate-y, gooey and beyond happy.
Check out the recipe below, but I think you’ll find my Funfetti Chocolate Chip Cookies are simple yet perfect for a birthday or celebratory occasion. The colorful twist on everyone’s favorite cookie just makes it that much more fun. Enjoy! Truly, MKR
P.S. This isn’t the first time I’ve taken the classic chocolate chip cookie recipe and added an unexpected twist; hello Pretzel and Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies.
