Instructions
- Preheat & Prep: Preheat oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: Whisk together all-purpose flour, corn starch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl.
- Butter: Add cool, cubed butter to stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, and mix on med-high for 1 min. Scrape sides, mix again for another 30 seconds.
- Cream the Sugars: Add the brown sugar and granulated sugar and mix on medium until combined and fluffy.
- Wet Ingredients: Add the egg, egg yolk, vanilla, and almond extract until just combined. (don’t over mix!)
- Mix It Up! Add dry ingredient mixture on low until just combined. Don’t turn mixer on too high or you could end up with flour all over your kitchen!
- Rainbow Jimmie Sprinkles & White Chocolate Chips: Add the Rainbow jimmies and white chocolate chips – pulse the mixer until evenly distributed.
- Shaping the Dough: Scoop dough, then weigh to 5½–6 oz each – or use ½ cup per cookie if you don’t have a scale. Do this before shaping so you don’t have to redo them. Shape into mounds, pinch the dough, and space apart – these bake up big!
- Bake: Bake on middle rack for 12-14 minutes, depending on cookie size.
- Let Cookies Set: These giant cookies continue to bake from residual heat. Leave them on the baking sheet for at least 1 hour to finish setting before enjoying.
- Storage: Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, in the fridge for 1 week, or in the freezer for up to 3 months—just microwave for 10–15 seconds before enjoying.
