Who doesn't love snickerdoodles? Just say the word - snickerdoodle - it's awsome! When I was little I'd always request my mother to make these for me. I'm only guessing on the yield...I don't remember how many cookies this makes! Ingredients:
2 2/3 cups all-purpose flour |
1 1/4 cups sugar |
1 cup softened butter |
2 teaspoons cream of tartar |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
2 eggs |
2 teaspoons cinnamon |
2 tablespoons sugar (to make a cinnamon-sugar mix for rolling dough balls in before baking) |
Directions:
1. Mix dry ingredients together, set aside.
2. Into a large bowl mix wet ingredients, then gradually add dry.
3. With a mixer, beat at low speed until blended.
4. Shape dough into a large ball, cover bowl with plastic wrap and set in the refridgerator for 2 hours.
5. Preheat oven to 400.
6. In a small bowl, mix together 2 tsp cinnamon with 2 tbl sugar.
7. Shape dough into 1/2 inch balls.
8. Roll dough balls in cinnamon-sugar mixture to coat lightly (I like to coat somewhat more than lightly - ).
9. Place balls about two inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.
10. Bake 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned.
11. Remove to wire racks to cool.
12. Enjoy!
