      In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the buer and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the vanilla and beat until well combined. Turn off the mixer and scrape down the bowl with a rubber spatula. Add the flour mixture and beat on low speed just until blended.

      Lightly dust a clean work surface with flour. Using the rubber spatula, scrape the dough out onto the work surface, then shape it into a disk with your hands. Wrap the disk in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

      Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

      Dust your work surface with flour and set the dough on the surface. Roll out the dough to ¼-inch thickness. Using a pizza cuer and a ruler, cut the dough into 4-inch squares, then cut each square in half diagonally into triangles. Transfer to the prepared cookie sheet, spacing them about 1½ inches apart. Bake until the edges of the cookies are golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes. Remove the sheet from the oven and set it on a wire rack. Let the cookies cool.

      Place the chocolate chips in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high power, stirring every 30 seconds, just until the chips are melted and smooth. Dip each cookie halfway into the melted chocolate, then let the ex-cess chocolate drip back into the bowl. Carefully place the cookie back on the cookie sheet and sprinkle the chocolate-coated side with rainbow sprinkles. Let stand at room temperature until the chocolate has set, then serve.

      These cookies with a silly name are seriously scrumptious. They’re what happens when balls of sugar cookie dough are rolled in cinnamon-sugar before baking. For extra yumminess, serve these so and chewy goodies with ice cream or mugs of hot cocoa.

      Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.

      In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the buer and 1½ cups of the sugar on medium speed until well blended, about 1 minute. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat on low speed until combined. Turn off the mixer and scrape down the bowl with a rubber spatula. Add about half of the flour mixture and mix on low speed just until blended. Add the remaining flour mixture and mix again just until blended.

      In a small bowl, stir together the remaining ¼ cup sugar and the cinnamon.

      Scoop up 1 rounded tablespoon of dough. Scrape the dough off the spoon into your palms and roll the dough into a ball. Drop the ball into the cinnamon- sugar and roll it around to coat it completely. Place the ball on a prepared cookie sheet. Continue scooping, shaping, and rolling the dough in the sugar, spacing the balls about 3 inches apart on the cookie sheets.

      Bake 1 cookie sheet at a time until the edges of the cookies are lightlybrowned but the tops are barely colored, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove the sheet from the oven and set it on a wire rack. Let cool for 5 minutes, then use a metal spatula to move the cookies directly to the rack. Repeat to bake the rest of the cookies. Let cool completely and serve.
