Step-by-Step Instructions for Festive Pan-Banging Confetti Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (3-4 minutes).
  3. Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract, and beat on low speed until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt, then gradually add to the wet ingredients and mix until combined.
  5. Fold in the holiday sprinkles until evenly distributed in the dough.
  6. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets and bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are set.
  7. Bang the baking sheet against the oven rack to create crinkles, then bake for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  8. Cool the cookies on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
