Dad's Favorite Snickerdoodles image

My Dad insists on Snickerdoodles every year for Father's Day, his birthday, the holidays- any excuse he can think of to get me to make these!! My hubby and kids don't mind them either!! I make my version of this Betty Crocker recipe.:) Great for gifting friends too! I don't use self-rising flour ever on these, but included the info in case someone did in the ingredients. I DO add extra flour when needed if the consistency of the cookies aren't what I want- more flour makes them "fluffier". Adjust accordingly each time you make based on your personal taste!

Time 23m

Yield 60 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup margarine (I usually use Imperial)
1/2 cup shortening (Crisco)
2 eggs
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour (omit cream of tartar,salt and baking soda if using self rising flour)
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 tablespoons vanilla
2 tablespoons sugar (approx to roll balls in)
1 tablespoon cinnamon (to mix with sugar topping)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees.
  • In small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of sugar and 1 tablespoon cinnamon for topping mix. Set aside.
  • In large mixing bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups sugar, the margarine, shortening, vanilla and eggs. I find the texture of the cookies best if I stick to this margarine/shortening ratio.
  • Sift together flour, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt.
  • Mix thoroughly into wet mixture (eggs/butter, etc).
  • Shape into balls- I usually make a heaping teaspoonful-depends on your preference.
  • Roll tops of balls into sugar/cinnamon mixture to coat.
  • Place approximately 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake 8-10 minutes until set.
  • Remove cookies immediately from sheet to rack to cool.
  • TIP- I find best results also when I refrigerate the dough/balls between batches until they are baked. This keeps them from spreading out as much.
  • ENJOY! ;).
