Snickerdoodles!

Snickerdoodles are basically cinnamon sugar cookies. Not sure where it got its name from but I like it :) Reminds me of goldendoodles (which are not food)..

Got the recipe from allrecipes.com again -- Mrs. Sigg's Snickerdoodles. Almost all of my recipes are from this website. Whenever I think of something I wanna bake, I just search the site and (this is the imporant part) look for the ones with the highest ratings. Then read all the comments. If people are saying it tastes good, chances are high that it'll taste good when you bake it -- assuming you stick to the recipe!


Recipe for 24 cookies:
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup shortening (If you don't have shortening, you can use butter too.. so in that case, you would use 1/2 cup butter for the whole recipe)
1 tsp vanilla
1 egg
1 1/3 cup flour
1/2 tsp baking soda + 1 tsp cream of tartar (If you don't have cream of tartar, use 1 1/4 tsp baking powder and 1/4 tsp baking soda)
1/8 tsp salt
1/4 cup sugar
2 tsp cinammon

  • Mix the butter+shortening, sugar, vanilla, and egg together.
  • In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda and cream of tartar, salt.
  • Slowly pour in the flour mixture to the butter and sugar mixture. Mix well.
  • In a smaller bowl, combine sugar with cinnnamon powder for the coating.
  • Use a spoon to make rounded balls of dough and roll them around the sugar coating.
  • Bake at 200c for around 8 minutes.
