Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and 1 ½ cups of granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

  4. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

  6. In a small bowl, mix together the remaining ¼ cup of granulated sugar and ground cinnamon for rolling.

  7. Using a cookie scoop or a spoon, scoop out dough and roll it into 1-inch balls. Roll each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until evenly coated.

  8. Place the coated dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still slightly soft.

  10. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

  11. Enjoy your freshly baked snickerdoodle cookies with a glass of milk or a cup of your favorite hot beverage.
