Snickerdoodle Cookies
Makes 16 cookies, about 65g each
Ingredients
1 cup butter, softened
1 2/3 cups granulated sugar
2 eggs
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
Cinnamon Sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons cinnamon
Directions
In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or by hand, beat the butter and sugar together until light and creamy. Add the eggs and mix again until combined.
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt. Mix to combine.
Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture and mix until a dough forms.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
Preheat the oven to 400°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Once the dough is chilled, roll it into balls. I like to weigh out 65g of dough per cookie, which is about 4 tablespoons.
In a small bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon.
Roll each dough ball in the cinnamon sugar mixture, then place on the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden and the edges are set. Allow them to cool for 5 minutes before moving to a cooling rack.
