Browned Butter Sour Cream Snickerdoodles Recipes

BROWN BUTTER SNICKERDOODLES SUBMITTED BY LYNNE HOWARD RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Whisk together the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, and salt in a bowl and set aside.
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. The butter will begin to foam. Make sure you whisk consistently during this process. After a couple of minutes, the butter will begin to brown on the bottom of the saucepan; continue to whisk and remove from heat as soon as the butter begins to brown and give off a nutty aroma.
• Immediately transfer the butter to a bowl to prevent burning. Set aside to cool for a few minutes.
• With an electric mixer, mix the butter and sugars until thoroughly blended.
• Beat in the egg, yolk, vanilla, and yogurt until combined.
• Add the dry ingredients slowly and beat on low-speed just until combined.
• Chill your dough for 3 hours or as long as possible in the refrigerator (important!).
• NOTE: You can place it in the freezer for 30 minutes if you are super eager, although I cannot promise the same results if you do this. Fridge is always best! You want the dough VERY cold. If you desire a 'puffy' cookie, place them in the fridge overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Once dough is chilled measure about 2 tablespoons of dough and roll into a ball.
• Meanwhile mix the rolling mixture in a bowl.
• Roll balls in cinnamon-sugar mixture. Place dough balls on cookie sheet, 2 inches (5 cm) apart.
• Bake the cookies 8-11 minutes or until the edges of the cookies begin to turn golden brown. They will look a bit underdone in the middle, but will continue to cook once out of the oven. Bake longer if you like crispier cookies.
• Cool the cookies on the sheets at least 2 minutes. Remove the cooled cookies from the baking sheets after a few minutes and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Repeat with remaining dough.
• Enjoy!

EASY BROWNED BUTTER SNICKERDOODLES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F.
• In 1-quart saucepan, heat butter over medium heat 5 to 8 minutes, stirring frequently, until light golden brown. Pour into large bowl; cool 5 minutes.
• Stir cookie mix, water and egg into browned butter with spoon until soft dough forms. Shape dough into 36 (1 1/4-inch) balls. In small bowl, mix sugar, cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg. Roll balls in sugar-spice mixture. On ungreased cookie sheets, place balls 2 inches apart. Flatten slightly. Discard any remaining sugar-spice mixture after rolling balls.
• Bake 7 to 9 minutes or until edges are set. Cool 2 minutes. Remove from cookie sheets to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 30 minutes. Store covered in airtight container.

SOUR CREAM SNICKERDOODLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Using a stand mixer, cream the butter and 1/2 cup granulated sugar for a few minutes, until smooth and fluffy. Add the egg, sour cream, and vanilla, mixing well to combine.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the baking soda, baking powder, cream of tartar, 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, salt, and flour. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, mixing well.
• In a small bowl, combine the remaining 1 cup of sugar with the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon. Using a small ice cream scoop or a medium-sized spoon (scoops of dough should be about 2 inches in diameter), roll each ball of dough in the cinnamon-sugar mixture, placing them on the baking sheets, about an inch apart.
• Note: The dough is much stickier than your typical snickerdoodle dough. The trick to coating them in sugar is to roll them around by moving and shaking the bowl.
