Ingredients for Unicorn Poop Cookies

Our Unicorn Poop Cookies combine simple ingredients with a touch of magic to create a treat that's both tasty and fun. Here's what you'll need:

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened: This will give your cookies a rich and creamy texture. Make sure the butter is at room temperature for easy mixing.
  • 1 cup granulated sugar: Adds the perfect amount of sweetness to your cookies.
  • 1 large egg: Helps bind the ingredients together and adds moisture to the dough.
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract: Adds a wonderful aroma and flavor, making your cookies even more irresistible.
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour: The main structure for your cookies. Be sure to measure accurately to avoid overly dense or dry cookies.
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder: Helps the cookies rise slightly, giving them a light and tender texture.
  • 1/2 tsp salt: Balances the sweetness and enhances the other flavors.
  • 1/2 cup rainbow sprinkles: Adds a pop of color and fun to every bite. Feel free to use your favorite type of sprinkles.
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips: Melts into the dough for pockets of creamy, sweet goodness.

Decoration

  • Extra rainbow sprinkles: For rolling the cookie dough balls before baking, adding an extra layer of color and crunch.
  • Edible glitter (optional): For a magical shimmer effect that makes your cookies look like they've been sprinkled with fairy dust.

Instructions for Making Unicorn Poop Cookies

Now that you have gathered all the magical ingredients, it's time to bring these Unicorn Poop Cookies to life! Follow these detailed instructions for baking perfection:

Cookie Dough Preparation

  1. Preheat your oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lining your baking sheets with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. Cream together butter and sugar: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
  3. Add egg and vanilla extract: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined, ensuring a smooth and creamy consistency.

Combining Dry Ingredients

  1. Whisk dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
  2. Combine wet and dry ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough cookies.

Folding in Sprinkles and Chocolate Chips

  1. Add sprinkles and chocolate chips: Gently fold in the rainbow sprinkles and white chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Forming and Baking

  1. Shape the cookies: Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Roll each ball in additional rainbow sprinkles to coat the outside.
  2. Bake: Place the coated dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  3. Cool and decorate: Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. For an extra touch of magic, sprinkle edible glitter over the cooled cookies.

Serving and Storage Tips for Unicorn Poop Cookies

Once your Unicorn Poop Cookies are baked to perfection, here are some serving and storage tips to ensure they are enjoyed at their best:

Storage Tips

  • Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
  • To maintain freshness, consider placing a piece of bread in the container with the cookies. The bread helps absorb moisture and keeps the cookies soft.

  • Experiment with different types of sprinkles or mix in some colorful candy pieces for added variety.
  • For a richer flavor, swap the white chocolate chips with dark chocolate chips or chunks.
