Why You Should Make These Snickerdoodles
- These cookies take 10 minutes or less to put together and an additional 10 minutes or less to bake in the oven. The quick recipe is so convenient.
- They’re a great alternative to traditional chocolate chip and sugar cookies that most people bake for different occasions.
- When you make this recipe, you’ll have enough cookies for up to 40 people, which is a LOT of cookies!
Ingredients Needed
Grab your ingredients from the grocery store before you get started. It’s important to have the following ingredients at home:
- Butter – Be sure to use unsalted butter, leaving it out to become soft before you use it.
- Granulated Sugar – Give your cookies a sweeter taste with the addition of granulated sugar.
- Vanilla Extract – Enhance the taste of your cookies using a bit of vanilla extract for that vanilla flavoring.
- All-Purpose Flour – Use this flour as the base for your homemade cookie dough!
- Ground Cinnamon – You can’t make Snickerdoodles Cookies without some ground cinnamon.
You’ll also need baking soda, eggs, cream of tartar, milk, and a bit of salt to complete the cookie dough recipe.
Recipe Notes and Tips
- Roll your dough in the blend of cinnamon and sugar to ensure it has the perfect coating before you place your cookies on a baking sheet.
- You can use small balls of dough for the cookies or create shapes with them by using cookie cutters.
- If you don’t have ground cinnamon, it’s fine to use cinnamon sugar as the finishing touch for your cookies.
How will I know when the cookies are done?
Watch the timer and keep an eye on you cookies. They’re often ready in eight minutes. However, if you prefer a crispier cookie, you can leave them in for around 10 minutes. When you notice the edges of the cookies are becoming golden, it’s a good time to check them and remove them.
Can I add anything else to the dough?
While traditional Snickerdoodles Cookies consist of the ingredients in this recipe, it’s fine to add extra ingredients to the dough, such as raisins, chopped nuts, or even mini white chocolate chip morsels. You can add these ingredients when customizing the overall taste of the cookies.
How to Store the Snickerdoodles Cookies
Let your cookies cool completely on a wire rack after you’ve removed them from the oven. When you’re ready to store these cookies, place them in an airtight food storage container and keep them on the counter in a cool, dry spot.
