Ingredients

For the Snickerdoodles
  • 3 ¾ cups flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1 cup butter
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • ¼ cup milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
For the Cinnamon & Sugar Mixture
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon

Instructions

For the Cinnamon and Sugar Mixture
    Cup of Yum
  1. Whisk sugar and cinnamon together in a pie plate or shallow dish.
For the Snickerdoodles
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees (F).
  2. Whisk together flour, salt, baking soda, and cream of tartar.
  3. Cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  4. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well between each addition.
  5. Add milk and vanilla extract, beat until combined.
  6. Slowly add dry ingredients into the creamed mixture.
  7. Mix until everything just comes together, scraping down the bowl as needed.
  8. Check the consistency of the dough, you may have to add few tablespoons more flour. You should be able to touch it without it sticking too much to your fingers.
  9. Form dough into 1-inch balls and roll in cinnamon sugar mixture.
  10. Place 12 balls per cookie sheet and gently press the cookies with the bottom of a glass until the cookies are flattened to about ½ an inch thick.
  11. Bake for 8-12 minutes until the edges are set and the very middle still looks slightly under baked.

Notes

  • These cookies are great to freeze if you don't need 4 dozen. Portion out the dough, place it on a parchment lined cookie sheet and flash freeze it for about 30 minutes. After you flash freeze, transfer them to a zipper top bag.
  • When you want to bake up the frozen ones, just place 12 frozen dough portions per cookie sheet {greased or parchment lined} and bake at 350 degrees F {instead of 375 degrees F like in the recipe} and halfway through baking briefly remove from the oven and gently press a cross-hatch into the top. Bake them a bit longer, 10-14 minutes. They will still turn out perfect!
