Victoria Dwek, Leah Schapira, Renee Muller, Shaindy Menzer, & Esti Waldman Square Sprinkle Cookies Ingredients: • 2 ¼ cups flour • ¾ cup Confectioner’s sugar • 2 sticks butter or margarine, chopped • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract • Lots of nonpareils This is an easy, basic, egg-free sprinkle cookie. Since there’s no leavener either - the cookies come out as perfect and even as they are when they’re sliced. 1. Preheat oven to 350ºF. 2. In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine flour and sugar. Add butter and vanilla and mix until a dough forms, scraping the sides to incorporate all the flour into the dough. The dough will seem dry, but keep mixing and it will come together nicely. 3. Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough on a piece of parchment into a rectangle (to roughly a 9x13 size), then transfer the parchment paper to 9 x 13-inch Pyrex. Press the dough until it evenly fills the entire pan. 4. Add nonpareils and press with a piece of parchment so they stick to the dough. 5. Lift parchment out of the Pyrex. Using a pizza slicer, slice into small squares. 6. Transfer squares to a parchment lined baking sheet. You don’t have to place them far apart because they won’t rise significantly. Bake for 10-12 minutes. They won’t turn golden, so you can remove from oven when they’re slightly firm to the touch. They’ll continue to firm up as they cool.
