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
- 2 tablespoon cinnamon
Instructions
For the Cinnamon and Sugar Mixture
- Whisk sugar and cinnamon together in a pie plate or shallow dish.
For the Snickerdoodles
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees (F).
- Whisk together flour, salt, baking soda, and cream of tartar.
- Cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
- Add eggs, one at a time, beating well between each addition.
- Add milk and vanilla extract, beat until combined.
- Slowly add dry ingredients into the creamed mixture.
- Mix until everything just comes together, scraping down the bowl as needed.
- 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.
- Form dough into 2-inch balls and roll in cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Place 12 balls per cookie sheet.
- 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!
