Toasty brown butter and coarsely chopped white chocolate give traditional snickerdoodle cookies a decadent upgrade in this wow-worthy recipe. Preparing and cooling brown butter requires a little more time--but the rich, nutty flavor is so worth it. In addition to their incredible flavor, these snickerdoodles have a fluffy, melt-in-your-mouth consistency, thanks to the cream cheese in the dough. You'll definitely want to bookmark this one for the holidays, but don't be surprised if you come back to these next-level snickerdoodles all year long.

Time 2h35m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup unsalted butter
½ (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 cup white sugar
⅓ cup light brown sugar
1 large egg
1 large egg yolk
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
¾ teaspoon salt
4 (1 ounce) squares white chocolate, coarsely chopped
⅓ cup white sugar
1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Melt butter for cookies in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring often, until the milk solids turn golden brown and the butter smells nutty, 10 to 12 minutes. Pour butter and any browned bits into a small bowl.
  • Place in the refrigerator until butter resolidifies but is still soft, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Remove brown butter from the refrigerator and place in a large mixing bowl. Add cream cheese and beat with an electric mixer until fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add white and brown sugars; beat until combined and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes more. Mix in egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract at medium speed until incorporated.
  • Whisk flour, cream of tartar, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt together in a separate bowl. Gradually add flour mixture to the butter mixture, beating until just combined, and adding chocolate in with the last bit of flour.
  • Whisk sugar and cinnamon for coating together in a shallow dish.
  • Scoop cookie dough into 1 1/2- to 2-tablespoon portions and roll each into a ball. Roll each ball in the coating and arrange 3 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until set, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Yield 20 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
½ teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt
2 sticks unsalted butter
1 ¼ cups dark brown sugar, packed
½ cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 egg yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon plain greek yogurt
¼ cup sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon

Steps:

  • Whisk together the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, and salt in a bowl and set aside.
  • Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. The butter will begin to foam. Make sure you whisk consistently during this process. After a couple of minutes, the butter will begin to brown on the bottom of the saucepan; continue to whisk and remove from heat as soon as the butter begins to brown and give off a nutty aroma.
  • Immediately transfer the butter to a bowl to prevent burning. Set aside to cool for a few minutes.
  • With an electric mixer, mix the butter and sugars until thoroughly blended.
  • Beat in the egg, yolk, vanilla, and yogurt until combined.
  • Add the dry ingredients slowly and beat on low-speed just until combined.
  • Chill your dough for 3 hours or as long as possible in the refrigerator (important!).
  • NOTE: You can place it in the freezer for 30 minutes if you are super eager, although I cannot promise the same results if you do this. Fridge is always best! You want the dough VERY cold. If you desire a 'puffy' cookie, place them in the fridge overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  • Once dough is chilled measure about 2 tablespoons of dough and roll into a ball.
  • Meanwhile mix the rolling mixture in a bowl.
  • Roll balls in cinnamon-sugar mixture. Place dough balls on cookie sheet, 2 inches (5 cm) apart.
  • Bake the cookies 8-11 minutes or until the edges of the cookies begin to turn golden brown. They will look a bit underdone in the middle, but will continue to cook once out of the oven. Bake longer if you like crispier cookies.
  • Cool the cookies on the sheets at least 2 minutes. Remove the cooled cookies from the baking sheets after a few minutes and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Repeat with remaining dough.
  • Enjoy!
