I have to start my cooking blog off with a classic recipe. I think I learned how to make Snickerdoodles back in high school. I have had the same recipe I wrote in my recipe box for YEARS. I just decided to make them a couple days ago since it had been some years since I had made them.I took this picture after they were done and cooled off.
These are cookies that almost everyone LOVES. Well, at least my family does!
Ingredients:
- 3 3/4 cups flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp cream of tartar
- 1 cup butter or margarine
- 2 cups sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 3 tbs sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
Directions:
First you are going to want to get out a large bowl. You are going to want to throw in the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar and 1/2 tsp and stir until blended. In a separate bowl, beat the butter for about 30 seconds and add to flour mixture. Next add the 2 cups of sugar, eggs, milk, vanilla. Beat well. In a side dish mix the 3 tbs sugar and cinnamon. You will want to roll the dough into 1 inch balls and roll them into the sugar/cinnamon mixture. Place on non-stick cookie sheet 2 inches apart and flatten lightly.
Bake at 375 for 8 to 10 minutes
This made about 2 dozen for me and I made larger sized cookies.
Enjoy
