Chewy Halloween Sprinkle Cookies are so fun and festive, with a milk chocolate center! A secret ingredient sets them apart form all other sprinkle cookies!
Ingredients
- 3/4 cups unsalted butter (softened)
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 eggs
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 1/3 cups all purpose flour
- sprinkles
- 48 milk chocolate stars (or Hershey's Kiss)
Directions
| Step 1 | |
| Preheat oven to 350 In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter, peanut butter, and sugars until light and creamy. Add the salt, vanilla, and egg, mixing well to combine. Add baking soda and flour and mix just until incorporated. | |
| Step 2 | |
| Roll cookie dough into 48 equal sized balls (about 1 1/4" each). Roll each ball in sprinkles until completely coated. | |
| Step 3 | |
| Bake on ungreased cookie sheets about 2" apart for 8-10 minutes. Immediately press a chocolate star into the center of each cookie. Allow them to cool a few minutes on the cookie sheet before moving them to a cooling rack. Make sure the chocolate is completely set before storing in an airtight container. These freeze well, too! | |

I rarely make recipes that don’t have a bunch of reviews, but these are so cute. And delicious. They turned out great. I will definitely make them again. I went a little heavy with the nonpareils. I liked the look of the sprinkled ones better.

Do you think you can make these without peanut butter and keep the recipe the same?
Stephanie Brubaker says
If you leave out the peanut butter just add another 4 TBS of butter 🙂

I ended up keeping the peanut butter in there in hopes it wasn’t too peanut buttery for me. It wasn’t! I used all my Halloween sprinkles, including non perils and sugar sprinkles and they were delicious! I only put sprinkles on the top of the cookies to save sprinkles and there’s no need to cover the bottom. I placed a Hershey star on top of half and a Halloween colored non peril chocolate on the other half. Both were great!
