Equipment

Ingredients
  

For the Cookies:

  • 1 ½ cups unsalted butter softened
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • 6 egg whites
  • 2 teaspoons princess cake emulsion
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 4 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup sequin sprinkles

For the Frosting:

  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 6 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon milk or heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • pink food coloring
  • sequin sprinkles for decorating

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Cream the butter and sugar in a stand mixer with the paddle attachment until smooth.
  • Add vanilla, princess cake flavoring, and egg whites. Mix and scrape down the sides.
  • Add flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix until combined, scraping as needed.
  • Fold in the sequin sprinkles.
  • Scoop the dough onto the baking sheets using an ice cream scoop.
  • Bake for 12–15 minutes, until edges begin to brown and centers are set. Let cool completely.
  • For the frosting, mix the softened butter and cream cheese in a stand mixer.
  • Add half of the powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk. Mix on low.
  • Add the remaining sugar and mix on low, then beat on medium until fluffy.
  • Tint with pink food coloring.
  • Pipe frosting in a spiral on each cooled cookie.
  • Top with sprinkles immediately.

Notes

Chef Jenn’s Tips

  • Use a cookie scoop to portion dough evenly and avoid sticky fingers.
  • Don’t skip chilling the frosting ingredients first—it helps the swirl hold its shape.
  • Want more flavor? Add a dash of almond extract or swap the emulsion for butter vanilla flavor.
  • These cookies freeze well before frosting. Just thaw, frost, and decorate when you’re ready!
