Description
Soft, chewy Snickerdoodle Cookies with a delightful cinnamon-sugar coating. These quick and easy cookies are the perfect treat for any occasion.
Ingredients
– 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
– 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
– 1 teaspoon baking soda
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
– 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
– 2 large eggs
– 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
– 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
Instructions
1. – Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. – In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3. – In a large bowl, beat the butter and 1 1/2 cups of sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
4. – Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
5. – In a small bowl, mix the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar and the cinnamon.
6. – Scoop the dough by the tablespoonful and roll into balls. Coat each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture and place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
7. – Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft. Allow to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
