Snickerdoodle Recipe
Snickerdoodles are a kind of sugar cookie. They're easy to make, chewy, light, cinnamon sugar things.
I made them because I had everything I needed in the house. My recipe is from the Pillsbury Kitchens Family Cookbook 1979 edition.
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs
2 3/4 cup all purpose flour
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 teaspoon soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon
Heat oven to 400 degrees F. In large bowl, combine first 4 ingredients; blend well. Stir in flour, cream of tartar, soda and salt; blend well. Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Combine 2 tablespoons sugar and cinnamon; roll balls in sugar mixture. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 400 degrees F. for 8 to 10 minutes or until set. Immediately remove from cookie sheet.
They're simple.

My first class in Home Economics in 7th grade was to make a snickerdoodle. I left out an ingredient, and it turned into a single, giant cookie.
I flunked home ec.
Oooooh, thank you Maureen!
And have a wonderful time in Jamaica.
My favorite cookie ever. Also used as a unit of currency in our family, as in, "Do this for me and I'll pay you with a batch of snickerdoodles."
