Old-Fashioned Snickerdoodles image

I searched long and hard for a truly satisfying snickerdoodle recipe. A friend gave me this recipe years ago. I tried it and found that it was exactly what I was looking for. I hope all of you enjoy it as much as I have.

Time 19m

Yield 25 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Beat softened butter until creamy. Add your 1 cup sugar, baking soda and cream of tartar; mixing together. Beat egg and vanilla into the mixture. Slowly add the flour until entirely combined. At this point if you can manage to wait long enough, let the dough sit in the fridge for at least a half an hour. This step isn't absolutely necessary but it allows the dough to firm up so that it's easier to work with.
  • Stir together the 1 teaspoons cinnamon and 2 tablespoons sugar. Shape the dough into small balls and coat with your cinnamon/sugar mixture. Place a few inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake in a preheated 375°F oven for 9 - 11 minutes (depending on how hot your oven runs). The recipe recommends taking them out of the oven when the edges are golden, but they are especially delicious slightly underbaked. They will be cool enough to eat in no time at all.

I've tried several snickerdoodle recipes, and this one is by far the best. The cookies are soft and chewy, and the cinnamon sugar coating is perfect.

I've made these cookies several times now, and they're always a hit with my family and friends. They're especially good when they're fresh out of the oven, but they're also great for packing in lunches or taking to potlucks.

These cookies are the perfect balance of sweet and tart, and they're so easy to make! I love that they don't require any chilling time, so I can always have them on hand when I need a quick and easy dessert.
