Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened butter and granulated sugar until fluffy, about 3 minutes.
Add eggs one at a time, mixing until fully incorporated before adding the next.
Mix in the vanilla extract until smooth.
In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Gradually add the dry mixture into your wet ingredients while mixing on low speed, scraping down the sides as needed.
Gently fold in red, white, and blue sprinkles until evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
For best results, chill the dough in the fridge for 30 minutes.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded balls onto prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until edges begin to turn golden brown.
Let cool on wire racks before serving.
