In a large bowl, sift together the flour, cornflour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.

Add the sprinkles and gently mix to combine.

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter, sugars and milk together. Heat, stirring constantly, until the sugars have dissolved. Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow to cook slightly.

Add the eggs and vanilla to your cooled butter and sugar mixture. Mix well to combine.

Scoop the contents of your saucepan into your bowl of dry ingredients. Mix until all of the dry ingredients have combined with the wet. The mixture should be thick and sticky

Cover the cookie dough with cling film and place it into the fridge for at least 1 hour. The dough will be less sticky now.

Preheat your oven to 160 degrees, fan forced and line 2-3 baking trays with baking paper

Take a heaped teaspoon of the batter and roll it into a ball before flattening it slightly to form a thick disk shape.

Place the cookie dough into a small bowl of icing sugar and cover the disk in a thick layer of icing sugar .

Place it on your baking sheet and repeat until you are out of dough.

Bake in batches for 12 minutes or until the cookies surfaces have crinkled and are just baked through.
