1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line an 8-inch square baking pan with plastic wrap (or cut parchment to fit) leaving a 1-inch overhang.

2. Beat together butter, sugar, and vanilla extract in a bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until creamy, scraping bowl often. Reduce speed to low and mix in flour and salt until well combined. Stir in sprinkles.

3. Knead mixture 4 to 5 times in the bowl until dough forms a ball. Pat dough evenly into the prepared pan. Use overhang to lift dough from pan. Cut dough into 1/2-inch squares. Gently place squares 1/2 inch apart onto an ungreased baking sheet.

4. Bake until bottoms just begin to brown, about 15 minutes.

Cook's Note:

You can use almond extract instead of vanilla extract.
