1 cup butter
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 large eggs
2 3/4 cups flour
2 tsp. cream of tartar
1 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
3 Tbsp. sugar
3 tsp. cinnamon
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix butter, 1 1/2 cups sugar, and eggs thoroughly in a large bowl. Combine flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl. Blend dry ingredients into butter mixture. Chill both dough and an ungreased cookie sheet for about 10-15 minutes in fridge (I put them in the freezer for 10 minutes). Meanwhile, mix 3 Tbsp. sugar and 3 tsp. cinnamon together in a small bowl. Scoop 1 inch balls of dough into the cinnamon/sugar mixture. Place on chilled ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 10 minutes. Remove from pan immediately.
I came across this recipe on food.com a couple of days ago, and I saved it to my cookbook. Last night while we were watching tv, I decided that I wanted to make something sweet, but something that I could make with everything I had on hand. I came across a snickerdoodle bread on Pinterest (also going in my Recipes To Try folder), and then remembered that I had this recipe saved. Holy cow!!! I love snickerdoodles, but every single time we have gotten them at the store, they are hard as a rock, and the flavor is always lacking. These were the absolute BEST snickerdoodles I have ever tried! They definitely held true to their name, and straight out of the oven? Gasp and swoon! Vann said that he took some to work today and they went like hotcakes. There is no greater compliment than that! They are extremely easy to throw together, and I promise you that you will not eat just one. The batter alone is addicting. I know, I know...raw eggs, blah blah blah. The threat of consuming salmonella or some other disease did not push me away from trying the batter. It was delicious. If you are looking to make something quick, easy, and sweet, give these suckers a try. You will fall in love :)
