Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven at 180C (350F) and line a tray with parchment paper or grease with coconut oil cooking spray.

  • Scoop the dough with an ice-cream scoop onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, leaving at least 4 inches (10 cm) of space between cookies and 2 inches (5 cm) of space from the edges of the pan so that the cookies can spread evenly.
  • Add the desire amount of chocolate chips and Christmas sprinkles on top.
  • Bake for 12 minutes or until slightly golden. Let cool and enjoy!
