Who is a fan of snickerdoodles? I sure am but surprisingly I had never made them on my own. The other day we were heading up to my parents for Easter and I decided I wanted to make some cookies to take and share with everyone. I made these Soft & Chewy Snickerdoodles and everyone loved them.
These cookies were simple to make and they are the perfect cookie to make when you want to share with everyone. My mom doesn’t eat chocolate so these were a great alternative to the normal chocolate chip cookies. Cinnamon and sugar coats these soft cookies and the inside is perfectly chewy.
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 3/4 cups flour
- 2 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 Tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, mix together flour, cream of tarter, baking soda and salt
- In a large bowl cream together butter and sugar
- Add in eggs and mix well
- Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix together well
- Mix together the 2 Tablespoon sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon in a small bowl
- Roll dough into 1 inch balls and then roll in the cinnamon/sugar mixture
- Place dough balls on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper
- Bake 8-10 minutes at 350
These cookies were delicious and made a lot. My mom also froze her extras and when she pulled them out the next weekend when we returned for my little sisters prom they were just as soft and chewy and delicious as when I first made them. Tell me, what is your favorite cookie?

Can you use a kitchen aid?
I’m sure you can! I didn’t have my Kitchen Aid when I made these but I’m sure it would work!

Emily, snickerdoodles were my childhood favorite (and still really high on the list)! But I haven’t made them in ages–you are totally inspiring me to get in the kitchen to make these 🙂
They are so delicious! One of my favorite cookies for sure.
