Instructions
1
Gather all ingredients.
2
Combine almond milk, vegetable oil, egg, brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, salt, almond extract, and ground nutmeg in a large bowl. Beat ingredients together with an electric mixer on medium-high speed for 5 minutes.
3
Add flour, baking powder, and baking soda and mix until just combined. Fold in jimmie sprinkles.
4
Cover dough and freeze for at least 30 minutes (or refrigerate for at least 2 hours).
5
Position an oven rack in the upper 1/3rd of the oven. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Place green sanding sugar in a small bowl. Place red sanding sugar in a separate small bowl.
6
Remove dough from freezer. Scoop out 1 1/2 tablespoons of dough and roll into a ball (dough will be a little sticky, but should still roll into a ball). Roll dough ball in one of the colored sanding sugars until thoroughly coated. Set onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat rolling and coating with remaining dough and set cookies 1-inch apart on the prepared baking sheets. If dough becomes too sticky to handle, return to the freezer until rollable again.
7
Bake cookies, 1 baking sheet at a time, in the preheated oven until cookies begin to crackle on top, 10 to 12 minutes. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
