25 Cookies with Sugar and Sprinkles

It’s no secret that I love using sugar and sprinkles to add eye appeal to cookies and bars. The little bit of extra sparkle or color transforms baked goods from everyday to extra special. Extra special is what home-baked love is all about. I own quite a collection of sprinkle shapes and an entire rainbow of colored sugars. That doesn’t stop me from picking up a few more jars when I see something new. You never know when inspiration will strike!

Perhaps some of these sprinkley cookie recipes will encourage you to embellish your next batch!
