Ingredients

• 170 grams Unsalted butter
• 200 grams Granulated sugar
• 100 grams Light brown sugar, packed
• 2 pieces Large eggs
• 2 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
• 300 grams All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Cream of tartar
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (for dough)
• 50 grams Granulated sugar (for coating)
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (for coating)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the cookies soft and tender.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix together the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon for the coating.

Step 7

Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, form portions of dough into 1.5-inch balls. Roll each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture to coat evenly.

Step 8

Place the coated dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are just set but the centers are still soft. Do not overbake, as the cookies will continue to firm up as they cool.

Step 10

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Store the snickerdoodles in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days—or freeze for longer storage.
