Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup butter, room temperature
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 1 egg 
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 and 1/2 cups flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
• 1/2 cup sprinkles, plus more for tops before baking

Directions:

1. In a mixer, beat butter and sugar.  Add egg and vanilla. 
2. Add all dry ingredients except sprinkles.  Once blended, fold in the sprinkles.
3. Scoop onto a cookie sheet and add some more sprinkles.  Chill a few hours (I only had time for 30 mins in freezer) and bake at 350F on a parchment lined cookie sheet for 9-11 mins. Remove when they look slightly underdone as they will set up more on the cookie sheets.
