PERFECT SNICKERDOODLES

Steps:

• Sift together flour, baking soda, and cream of tartar in a medium bowl.
• In a separate, large bowl, cream together butter and 2 cups sugar, then stir in eggs, milk, and vanilla.
• Gradually stir dry ingredients into wet ingredients until fully incorporated. Cover bowl and chill in refrigerator, at least a few hours or overnight, to make dough easier to roll in your hands.
• Preheat oven to 375 and grease cookie sheets (or use parchment paper).
• In a bowl, stir together 3 tbsp white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
• Roll the chilled dough into 1 to 1 1/2 inch balls, then roll in sugar mixture. Place 2 inches apart on greased cookie sheets (or parchment paper). Bake for 11 minutes in the preheated oven, until cookies begin to brown at the edges. Remove to cool on wire racks.

SNICKERDOODLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, combine the butter, shortening, 1 1/2 cups sugar and the eggs and mix thoroughly with an electric mixer on medium speed until creamy and well combined, 1 to 2 minutes. Sift together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt, and stir into the shortening mixture.
• In a small bowl, stir together the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar with the cinnamon.
• Shape the dough into 1 1/2-inch balls (1 tablespoon per ball), and roll each ball in the cinnamon-sugar. Arrange the dough balls 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake two sheets at a time until the edges of the cookies are set but the centers are still soft, 8 to 10 minutes, rotating the sheets halfway through. Transfer the cookies to wire racks for cooling. Repeat with the remaining dough balls. Store in an airtight container.

SNICKERDOODLES

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to the middle position and preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Whisk together the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl.
• Add the butter, 1 cup of the granulated sugar, brown sugar and egg to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment (or a large bowl if using a hand mixer). Beat on medium speed just to combine, about 30 seconds. Add the flour mixture in 2 parts and beat on low until just combined. Let the dough rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• Whisk together the remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
• Form the dough into 1 1/4-inch balls (about 1 tablespoon dough per cookie). Roll each ball in the cinnamon-sugar and coat well; arrange on two baking sheets, 2 inches apart. Do not flatten the balls, as they will spread a lot in the oven.
• Bake one sheet of cookies at a time until the tops look cracked and the center still feels soft, about 9 minutes. Let the cookies cool in the pan for 3 minutes; they will continue cooking during this time. Once they've firmed up a little, transfer them to a rack to continue cooling. Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

PERFECT VEGAN SNICKERDOODLES

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 300°F.
• In a large bowl, cream the margarine and sugar together until smooth. Add the vanilla, and the cornstarch/soymilk mixture, and beat until well-mixed.
• In a smaller bowl combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and tapioca/corn starch. Stir this into the wet ingredients and combine well.
• In a very small bowl stir together the granulated sugar, cinnamon and cocoa powder (if desired).
• Begin rolling the cookie dough into balls of about 3 tbsp each. Roll each ball in the cinnamon/sugar/cocoa powder mixture until completely coated and place on an ungreased baking sheet. Continue until all the dough is used up. Using the bottom of a glass, press down on each ball until they are about an inch thick. Bake for 12 - 14 minutes, and no more. The cookies should still seem very soft when you remove them from the oven. Let cool on the pans for about 10 minutes, and then transfer to a wire baking rack and let cool completely.
