These easy one-bowl, no-chill Snickerdoodles are crispy around the edges, soft and chewy at the centers, and so so good.

Snickerdoodles

  1. In a large bowl, cream together butter, shortening, and sugar.
  2. Add egg and vanilla and beat until well-combined.

Notes

  • Cookies will stay fresh in an airtight container at room temperature for 4 to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
  • *If using unsalted butter, double the salt to 1/4 teaspoon.
  • *The shortening in this recipe can be replaced with the same amount of butter (for 1/2 cup of butter total). 
  • *Correct flour measurement is very important in this recipe. For best results, measure by weight or the Spoon and Sweep Method (stir the flour in your container to fluff it up and then spoon it into your measuring cup, sweep excess off with the flat of a knife).
  • To Freeze Dough: After rolling cookie dough balls in cinnamon sugar, place them on a plate or small baking sheet that will fit in your freezer and freeze until solid. After dough is frozen, transfer to an airtight container or freezer bag and store in the freezer for up to 2 months.
  • To Reheat Frozen Cookie Dough: Preheat oven to 400°F and place frozen cookie dough on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or silicone baking mat. Bake for 8 to 11 minutes.
