Ingredients

How to make it

  • In a large bowl (Bowl #1) whisk together the flour, salt, and baking powder.
  • In a separate bowl (Bowl #2) with an electric or hand mixer, beat the butter and sugar until smooth .
  • Add the eggs, one at a time, (to bowl #2) beating well after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
  • Beat in the vanilla extract. (to bowl #2)
  • Add the mixture from bowl #2 to bowl #1 and beat until you have a smooth dough.
  • If the dough is soft, cover and refrigerate until firm enough to roll into balls (one to two hours).
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and place rack in the center of the oven.
  • Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Shape dough into 1 inch balls.
  • In ANOTHER shallow bowl, mix together 1/3 cup of granulated white sugar and 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon.
  • Roll around your dough balls in this cinnamon/sugar mix.
  • Place your coated dough on the baking sheets and gently flatten each cookie to about 1/2 inch thick using a glass.
  • Bake for about 8-10 minutes.
  • Remember- A darker snickerdoodle is a bitter snickerdoodle.
  • Also- The taste of the cookies changes once the cookies are cooled! I highly suggest waiting for them to cool and then tasting them! Enjoy!

    The best milk-dunking cookie that ever was!!! My cookie jar pig has held more Snickerdoodles than any other cookie in it's 60-year life.
