📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat the oven to 350° F. Line a large cookie sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper. To soften the butter quickly, microwave for ⏱️ 10-15 seconds, otherwise let it come to room temperature.
2
Combine the butter with the sugar and beat on medium speed until well creamed together.
3
Add the eggs and vanilla extract. Mix into the butter and sugar until the eggs are well beaten.

In a separate bowl, combine the remaining dry ingredients. Slowly add into the batter and beat on medium-low speed until most of the flour is incorporated, then add the Circus Animal Cookies and sprinkles and mix to combine. Increase the speed on the mixer and beat until the dough comes together.
5
Use a large cookie scoop to portion the dough. Place on the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
6
Bake at 350° F ⏱️ 10-12 minutes. Allow cookie to cool on the baking sheet for several minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely

To Add a Chocolate Drizzle
8
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate wafers at 50% power in 30-second intervals; stir after each interval and continue until the chocolate is melted. Fill a small piping bag or Ziploc bag with melted chocolate and cut off the tip/corner of the bag. Drizzle over the cookies, add a pinch of sprinkles, and allow to set.
