Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the egg and vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this to the butter mixture and mix until a dough forms.
Roll the dough into small balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Let them cool completely before decorating.
Melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Divide the melted chocolate into two separate bowls and add a few drops of green food coloring to one bowl and red food coloring to the other. Mix well until you get your desired color.
Dip half of the cooled cookies into the green chocolate and the other half into the red chocolate. Place them back on the baking sheet and decorate with Christmas sprinkles before the chocolate sets.
Let the chocolate set completely before serving or packaging them as gifts.
