Golden Funfetti Chocolate Chip Cookies packed with chocolate chips and sprinkles. There’s no need to chill the dough so these chewy cookies are ready in just 30 minutes.
It’s party time 🎉
Meet my new favourite cookies. Golden, chewy Funfetti Chocolate Chip Cookies filled to the brim with chocolate chips and colourful funfetti sprinkles.
These big, buttery cookies are my kryptonite.
There is something therapeutic about making a big batch of cookies. And these Funfetti Chocolate Chip Cookies are no exception.
They’re quick and easy to make, with no need to chill the dough. And with almost a cup of chocolate chips stuffed inside the cookie dough, they’ll satisfy ALL your chocolate cravings.
It is no secret that I love cookies. And I know you do too. Here are some of my favourites we shared so far:
-
- Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies (made with melted butter – oooh!)
-
- Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies (thick, fat ones)
-
- Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies (with a hint of cinnamon)
-
- Chunky Walnut Chocolate Cookies (with so. much. chocolate)
-
- Chocolate Stuffed Shortbread Cookies (with a chocolate surprise)
To make these cookies, you first need to cream the butter and sugar. For these cookies, I use a combination of caster sugar and brown sugar.
Brown sugar is my secret weapon in cookies. It adds so much flavour. And vanilla. I add vanilla to e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g.
The best part? The fix ins. We’re talking almost a cup of chocolate chips and a ton of funfetti sprinkles. Can you even?
My only advice is to invite friends over when you bake these because these Funfetti Chocolate Chip Cookies are I-R-R-E-S-I-S-T-I-B-L-E.
Tips for making perfect cookies
- Make sure your butter is at room temperature – not fridge cold and no gooey and soft.
- If the recipe says to chill the dough, chill the dough (this cookie recipe doesn’t require chilling)
- Never put your cookie dough on a hot cookie tray, it will cause the butter to start melting and the cookies to spread too much.
- Cookies firm up as they cool, wait a few minutes before carefully sliding them to a wire rack to cool completely.

- 115 grams (1/2 cup or 1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
- 90 grams (1/2 cup) brown sugar
- 50 grams (1/4 cup) caster sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 210 grams (1 and 1/2 cup) plain flour

- Pinch of salt, optional
- 135 grams (3/4 cup) milk or dark chocolate chips, plus extra for decorating
- 30 grams (1/4 cup) coloured funfetti sprinkles
Instructions
- Line two baking trays with baking or parchment paper. Preheat oven to 180 C (350 F) standard / 160 C (320 F) fan-forced.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugars using an electric beater for 1-2 minutes or until pale and creamy.
- Add vanilla and egg and beat until combined. Sift in flour, baking soda and salt, if using, and mix to combine. Add chocolate chips and sprinkles.
- Use a cookie scoop to roll balls of dough in your hands and place them onto your prepared trays, leaving room for the cookies to spread out.

Hi if I omit the egg what do I use in replace of it?
Jessica Holmes says
Hi, I haven’t tested the recipe without eggs I’m sorry.
Sofia says
Jessica hi!!! Please please please I need a recipe of Funfetti Cookies 🙏🏻🙏🏻😊😊 or Can I do this recipe only with sprinkles? ❤️
Jessica Holmes says
Hi Sofia, yes absolutely!
Sofia says
And… about the quantities? How do? How much sprinkles? The same quantity or more?
Jessica Holmes says
It’s up to you! Maybe add a few extra if you are going to take out the chocolate chips!
Sofia says
Thanks ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Autumn says
Do you either use milk or chocolate chips, or do you use both?
Jessica Holmes says
Hi Autumn, milk chocolate chips are the type of chocolate chips I use. That’s what regular or sweet chocolate chips are called here in Australia – hope that helps!
Amanda says
Just a tip–use LIGHT brown sugar not DARK. I only had dark in the house so I figured it would be alright–the extra molasses content took all the chew out of the cookie and I had to make a second batch!
Also if you find your cookies to be a little too dry add 1/2 teaspoon of milk. My cookies came out chewy and gorgeous after doing that.
