Snickerdoodle Cookies
Description
The recipe starts by creaming softened unsalted butter with most of the sugar until light and fluffy. Eggs are incorporated, then dry ingredients including flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt are mixed in gently to avoid overworking. The dough is portioned into tablespoon-sized balls rolled in cinnamon sugar before baking at 400°F for 6 to 8 minutes. The cookies form slightly browned edges while remaining soft and chewy inside.
Snickerdoodles are often enjoyed as a snack or dessert with milk or tea. The cinnamon sugar coating adds a subtle spice and sweetness that distinguishes these cookies.
