Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 2 3/4 cup flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar (for less tang, use 1 teaspoon)
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
Cinnamon-Sugar Mixture:
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 Tablespoons cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar for 4-5 minutes until light and fluffy. Scrape the sides of the bowl and add the eggs and vanilla. Cream for 1-2 minutes longer.
- Stir in flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt, just until combined.
- In a small bowl, stir together sugar and cinnamon.
- If time allows, wrap the dough and let refrigerate for 20-30 minutes. Roll into small balls until round and smooth. Drop into the cinnamon-sugar mixture and coat well. Using a spoon, coat for a second time, ensuring the cookie balls are completely covered. *To make flatter snickerdoodles, press down in the center of the ball before placing in the oven. This helps to keep them from puffing up in the middle. *
- Place on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Bake for 9-11 minutes. Let cool for several minutes on baking sheet before removing from the pan.

Notes
- Absolutely! Snickerdoodle cookies freeze well and can stay in the freezer for up to 3 months if you keep them in freezer-safe bags.When ready to serve, just remove from the freezer and let come to room temperature which should take about 30 minutes.
- These soft snickerdoodles will stay fresh for up to 24-48 hours if you cover them and store at room temperature.
- Watch carefully! This will depend on the size of the snickerdoodles (larger ones will take longer to bake), the type of baking pan (light vs. dark), and the accuracy of your oven temperature. I suggest setting the timer for 8-9 minutes and checking to see if they are done baking. Snickerdoodles will look slightly underdone but will set up once removed from the oven.
