cookies

2/3 cup butter; softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

In bowl, beat butter with sugar until fluffy; beat in egg and vanilla. In separate bowl, whisk flour, baking powder and salt; stir into butter mixture until smooth. Shape dough by rounded teaspoonfuls into balls; roll in candy sprinkles, pressing to adhere. Place, 2 inches apart, on parchment paper-lined rimless baking sheets. Using thumb or thimble, make deep indent in centre of each. Bake in top and bottom thirds of 350°F oven, rotating and switching pans halfway through, for about 10 minutes or just until golden on bottom. Let cool on pans on rack for 5 minutes. Place chocolate candy in each indent. Let cool completely. (Make-ahead: Store in airtight containers for up to 5 days or - Freeze for up to 2 weeks.)
