THE BEST SNICKERDOODLES I HAVE EVER EATEN
"This must be one of the best cookies I have ever eaten." Yep, that's what my mother said the first time I ever made this cookie. It is a GREAT cookie recipe, and not difficult to make at all. I tripled the recipe and took it to school to sell... I sold all of them with in an 80 minute time span to only 4 people. They are good cookies, I can't resist them whenever I make them. And they turn out so nice whenever you bake them, it's hard to make an ugly snickerdoodle. lol. Enjoy. (prep time is estimated)

WORLD'S BEST SNICKERDOODLES
Title says it all. DO NOT OVERBAKE THEM, or you will be sorry. Best to pull them out when they look a little raw and let them harden a bit on the cookie sheet. I have given these as gifts, sold them, and made them for guests, but I never have any left over by the end of the day. They are also very pretty, with the nice "broken" top characteristic of Snicks.

- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Cream together butter and sugar.

- Use your hands to roll dough into little (ping-pong ball-sized) balls.

SNICKERDOODLES
These classic, tender cookies taste of sweet butter, cinnamon - and not much else. Since ground cinnamon plays such an important role, be sure to check that it's still fresh and spicy before making these treats. The cookies' secret ingredient, cream of tartar, is an acidic salt and a byproduct of wine making. Often used to help stabilize egg whites for meringues or as the acidic component of baking powder, it helps these cookies stay soft and chewy.

The way you measure your flour is key in this iconic cookie recipe. In Food Network Kitchens, we spoon flour into the measuring cup and level it off with a knife. We find this to be a more accurate way to measure than scooping.

Steps:
- Adjust oven rack to the middle position and preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Whisk together the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl.
- Add the butter, 1 cup of the granulated sugar, brown sugar and egg to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment (or a large bowl if using a hand mixer). Beat on medium speed just to combine, about 30 seconds. Add the flour mixture in 2 parts and beat on low until just combined. Let the dough rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Whisk together the remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
- Form the dough into 1 1/4-inch balls (about 1 tablespoon dough per cookie). Roll each ball in the cinnamon-sugar and coat well; arrange on two baking sheets, 2 inches apart. Do not flatten the balls, as they will spread a lot in the oven.
- Bake one sheet of cookies at a time until the tops look cracked and the center still feels soft, about 9 minutes. Let the cookies cool in the pan for 3 minutes; they will continue cooking during this time. Once they've firmed up a little, transfer them to a rack to continue cooling. Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Tips:
- Choosing the Right Ingredients: Opt for high-quality ingredients, especially butter and flour, as they greatly impact the final texture and flavor of the Snickerdoodles.
- Softened Butter: Ensure the butter is at room temperature to achieve a smooth and creamy batter. This helps incorporate air, resulting in light and fluffy cookies.
- Creaming Butter and Sugar: Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This step is crucial for creating a smooth and homogeneous batter.
- Measuring Flour: To ensure accurate measurements, use a kitchen scale to weigh the flour rather than using a measuring cup.
- Chilling the Dough: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes helps firm it up, making it easier to handle and preventing the cookies from spreading too much while baking.
- Rolling the Dough: Roll the dough balls in a mixture of cinnamon and sugar before baking. This adds a delightful cinnamon-sugar crust to the cookies.
- Baking Temperature: Bake the cookies at the specified temperature and for the recommended time. Overbaking can result in dry and crumbly cookies.
- Cooling the Cookies: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. This helps prevent them from breaking.
