SNICKERDOODLES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6, and line a baking tray with baking parchment. Beat the butter and both sugars in a large bowl using an electric whisk for 2 mins until smooth and fluffy.
• Add the vanilla and beat until combined, scraping down the sides once. Add the flour, cream of tartar, bicarbonate of soda and ¼ tsp salt, and mix until just combined. Stir in the milk to loosen the mixture.
• For the topping, combine the sugar and cinnamon in a shallow bowl. Roll 40g of the dough into a ball. Roll the dough ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture, then place it on the prepared tray and press it down lightly. Repeat with the remaining dough and topping, spacing the balls about 5cm apart.
• Bake for 10-12 mins until golden and puffed up. Leave to cool on the tray for 5 mins, then transfer to a wire rack and leave to cool completely. Will keep in an airtight tin for up to four days.

Steps:

• Cream together the butter, 1 1/2 cups of sugar and eggs until smooth. In a separate bowl, use a whisk or fork to combine the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and mix until well combined. Cover the dough and chill for at least 30 minutes but up to 24 hours before working with it.
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Line cookie sheets with silpats or parchment paper.
• Use a fork to combine the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar with the 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon.
• Use a small disher (cookie scoop) or teaspoons to scoop about 2 teaspoons of cookie dough, roll it into a ball and then roll them in the cinnamon sugar to coat. Place the cookies 2-inches apart on the cookie sheets. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly browned but still soft. Let them rest on the cookie sheets for one minute before transferring to a cooling rack.
• Store at room temperature in an airtight container.

• Mix the first three ingredients thoroughly and set aside.
• In a separate bowl, mix the Flour, Cream of Tartar, Baking Soda, and Salt. Add the mixed dry ingredients to the first mixture.
• Dough may be chilled first. Make balls the size of walnuts and roll in a mixture of the remaining sugar and cinnamon.
• Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet. Do not place cookies too close together as the balls spread out.
• Bake for 8 to 10 minutes.

• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream the butter and 1 1/2 cups of the sugar together until light and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. Then beat in the eggs and scrape the bowl. Turn the mixer to low and slowly add the flour mixture until well combined.
• Mix the remaining 1/4 cup sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl. Use a 1 1/2-tablespoon cookie scoop to measure out the dough balls. Roll each ball in your hands to even out, then roll in the cinnamon sugar to thoroughly coat.
• Place the balls on the prepared baking sheets, 2 1/2 inches apart. Bake until just golden around the edges, 8 to 9 minutes. Cool for several minutes on the baking sheets before moving.

• Heat oven to 400°F.
• Mix together butter, shortening, 1 1/2 cups sugar and eggs.
• Blend in flour, cream of tarter, baking soda and salt.

• Mix the 2 teaspoons sugar and the 2 teaspoons cinnamon together.
• Roll the balls in the sugar/cinnamon mixture.
• Place the balls 2-3 inches apart (depending on size) on an ungreased baking sheet.
• Bake 8-10 minutes or until cookies are set.

SNICKERDOODLES, GRANDMA ROBINSON

Steps:

• Sift flour. Let margarine soften at room temp. Blend butter, powdered sugar and vanilla well. Slowly add flour and mix well. Add nuts. In small bowl mix sugar and cinnamon. Shape dough into balls and roll in sugar-cinnamon mixture. Bake about 30 min in a 275 degree oven. Cookies will be soft on top when done.

SNICKERDOODLES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 375 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat together the butter and 3/4 cup sugar until fluffy, about 2 minutes, scraping down the sides as necessary. Beat in the egg until creamy, and then add the vanilla, again scraping down the sides. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and beat on low until just combined.
• In a small bowl, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and the cinnamon. Roll the dough into golf-ball-size balls, then roll each one in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
• Transfer the dough to parchment-lined rimmed baking sheets, at least 3 inches apart. Bake the cookies until just set and dry in the center, 10 to 12 minutes. Do not overbake. Transfer each sheet to a rack to cool for a few minutes, then transfer the cookies to racks to cool completely.

OLD-FASHIONED SNICKERDOODLES

Steps:

• Beat softened butter until creamy. Add your 1 cup sugar, baking soda and cream of tartar; mixing together. Beat egg and vanilla into the mixture. Slowly add the flour until entirely combined. At this point if you can manage to wait long enough, let the dough sit in the fridge for at least a half an hour. This step isn't absolutely necessary but it allows the dough to firm up so that it's easier to work with.
• Stir together the 1 teaspoons cinnamon and 2 tablespoons sugar. Shape the dough into small balls and coat with your cinnamon/sugar mixture. Place a few inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake in a preheated 375°F oven for 9 - 11 minutes (depending on how hot your oven runs). The recipe recommends taking them out of the oven when the edges are golden, but they are especially delicious slightly underbaked. They will be cool enough to eat in no time at all.
