SPICY SNICKERDOODLE COOKIES



Spicy Snickerdoodle Cookies image

I don't think this is like most other Snickerdoodle recipes - in fact, I'd say they're more of a molasses or spice cookie. Either way, they are really good, and really chewy for those who like that kind of cookie. The cornmeal gives them a really interesting texture that I like a lot. The recipe says it makes 70 cookies, but either I made them too big or I ate more dough than I thought because I only got 56! This is from a 2003 Woman's Day magazine.

Time 1h

Yield About 24 snickerdoodles

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1 teaspoon five-spice powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Place flour, salt, baking soda, and cream of tartar in a mixing bowl. Add cinnamon, ginger, allspice, clove, and nutmeg. Whisk until thoroughly mixed, 1 or 2 minutes.
  • Place butter, sugar, and brown sugar in a separate mixing bowl. Cream together with a spatula or wooden spoon until mixture is smooth, 2 or 3 minutes. Add vanilla and egg. Stir until thoroughly combined.

  • Wrap bowl in plastic wrap. Chill dough in refrigerator for about 1 hour.

  • Bake in preheated oven until browned, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Cool on baking sheet 5 minutes; sprinkle with additional cinnamon-sugar mixture, if desired. Transfer cookies to cooling rack to cool completely.
  • If you'd like to add a bit of a shine to your cookies, you can brush them with a simple glaze. Mix confectioners' sugar with milk or lemon juice to achieve brushing consistency. Brush onto cookies. Sprinkle with more cinnamon sugar or pumpkin pie spice, if desired.
