Snickerdoodle Cookie Recipe


Well it's that time of year again. Holiday Time.  Whether you are celebrating Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzaa or The Boston Tea Pary Anniversary, everyone loves a good cookie.  Here is a recipe for one of my favorites....The Snickerdoodle. 

EAT MORE COOKIES :)

Snickerdoodle Cookies

3 cups flour
2 tsp. cream of tartar
1 tsp. baking soda
1⁄4 tsp. kosher salt
1 3⁄4 cups sugar
16 tbsp. unsalted butter,
   at room temperature
5 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 1⁄2 tsp. vanilla extract
2 eggs

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt; set aside. Using a handheld mixer on medium speed, beat 1 1⁄2 cups sugar and the butter together in a medium bowl until pale and fluffy, 2 minutes. Add 2 tsp. cinnamon and the vanilla; beat for 1 minute more. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add reserved dry ingredients; mix on low speed until just combined. Refrigerate dough for 30 minutes.

2. Heat oven to 375°. Combine remaining sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Remove dough from refrigerator and, using a 1-tbsp. measure, spoon out 48 portions, rolling each portion into a 1" ball as you go. Roll each ball in cinnamon-sugar mixture to coat. Arrange dough balls 2" apart on 2 parchment paper-lined baking sheets. Bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool.

This might be a great gift to make  a plate of cookies and deliver to past clients and say thanks - just adding that personal touch to say that I have not forgotten you!

Hey Leander! Okay, I didn't think you looked like a recipe kinda guy! ;-) But you're right . . . everybody loves a good cookie, and since these come so highly recommended, I will have to give them a try.

Bookmarked.

Have a wonderful holiday season with your family! All the best, Deena.

Sounds tasty. I'm sending this over to my wife right now. Maybe she'll get the hint.
