Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Cream margarine and sugar together. Add eggs, flour, vanilla, and salt.

Form one-inch balls, by hand or with a cookie scooper.

Pour sprinkles onto a plate. With the palm of your hand, flatten the cookie dough balls onto the plate of sprinkles.

Place cookies, two inches apart and sprinkle-side-up, on an ungreased cookie sheet.

Bake for 13 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven before cookies begin to brown.
