These Gourmet Snickerdoodle Cookies are perfectly sweet with puffy, chewy centers and lightly crisp edges. A delicious and easy snickerdoodle recipe without cream of tartar.
Servings: 12 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup salted butter, softened
- 1 ½ cups white sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 ¾ cups all purpose flour
Cinnamon Sugar Mix
- ¼ cup white sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F and line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
- In a stand mixer with paddle attachment or in a large mixing bowl with hand mixer, cream together the softened salted butter with sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each egg.
- Beat in the vanilla extract. Scrape the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula.
- Add the dry ingredients: baking powder, salt and all purpose flour. Mix on low speed just until everything is evenly incorporated.
- Using a ⅓ cup, portion the dough into 12 cookie dough balls and place 6 on each baking sheet.
- Roll the cookie dough into balls and flatten slightly so they look like thick hockey pucks.
- In a small bowl combine ¼ cup sugar and 1 tablespoon cinnamon. Mix together well.
- Coat the cookies in cinnamon sugar mixture and place back on cookie sheet.
- Bake cookies, one pan at a time, on center rack for 12-14 minutes just until the centers no longer look wet and the edges are barely golden brown.
- Let cookies cool for 5 minutes on cookie sheets, then remove to wire rack to cool completely.
