Ingredients:​

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 and 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 and 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
For Rolling:
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Instructions:​

  1. Preheat Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  2. Cream Butter and Sugar:
    • In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and 1 and 1/2 cups of granulated sugar until light and fluffy, using a hand mixer or stand mixer.
  3. Add Eggs and Vanilla:
    • Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, mix in the vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients:
    • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures:
    • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. The dough will be soft and slightly sticky.
  6. Prepare Cinnamon-Sugar Coating:
    • In a small bowl, mix together the remaining 1/4 cup of granulated sugar and the ground cinnamon.
  7. Shape Cookies:
    • Scoop out about 1 to 1.5 tablespoons of dough and roll it into balls. Roll each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until coated evenly.
  8. Place on Baking Sheets:
    • Arrange the coated dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  9. Bake:
    • Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and just beginning to brown. The centers will look slightly underbaked.
  10. Cool:
    • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer them to wire racks to cool completely.
  11. Enjoy:
    • Once cooled, serve and enjoy these delicious, homemade Snickerdoodle cookies!

Notes:​

  • Storage: Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
  • Variations: Some recipes use a combination of cinnamon and nutmeg in the cinnamon-sugar coating for added flavor. Feel free to adjust according to your preference.
These Snickerdoodle cookies are perfect for any occasion, and their cinnamon-sugar coating makes them irresistible to both kids and adults alike!
