Our World Famous Snickerdoodles

For the first recipe, we thought it would be best to post one of our most popular recipes, the snickerdoodle. It's extremely simple, but exceptionaly delicous. I've never met a single person who disliked this recipe.

Snickerdoodles (makes aprox. 30 cookies depending on the size of your cookie scoop)
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup shortening
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 eggs
2 3/4 cups flour

1 tsp. baking soda
cinnamon sugar mixture

  • Add eggs and mix until well blended
  • Add flour, cream of tartar, and baking powder until well combined
  • Use a cookie scoop to transfer onto cookie sheets
  • Roll each ball into cinnamon and sugar mixture
  • bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes or until done

This recipe is perfect for just about anyone. It's sweet taste is absolutely irresistible to anyone with tastebuds. The cookies can be overcooked for thoose who enjoy a crunchy cookie or undercooked for thoose who prefer a doughier(if that's even a word) tasting cookie. Overall these cookies are perfect to give to anyone at anytime. This is a great fall-back recipe when your unsure of what to bake. Enjoy!
