Grandma Suggies Snickerdoodles Recipes

GRANDMA D'S FAMOUS SNICKERDOODLES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F.
• Mix together butter, shortening, 1 1/2 cups sugar and eggs.
• Blend in flour, cream of tarter, baking soda and salt.
• Shape the dough by rounded teaspoonfuls into balls (I make the balls larger than that. The bigger the ball, the bigger your cookie.)
• Mix the 2 teaspoons sugar and the 2 teaspoons cinnamon together.
• Roll the balls in the sugar/cinnamon mixture.
• Place the balls 2-3 inches apart (depending on size) on an ungreased baking sheet.
• Bake 8-10 minutes or until cookies are set.
• Immediately remove from the baking sheet.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Cream together butter, shortening, 1 1/2 cups sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Blend in flour, cream of tartar, soda, and salt. Shape dough by rounded spoonfuls into balls.
• Mix 2 tablespoons sugar and cinnamon together. Roll balls of dough in mixture. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.
• Bake 8 to 10 minutes, or until set but not too hard. Remove immediately from baking sheets.

OLD-FASHIONED SNICKERDOODLES

Steps:

• Beat softened butter until creamy. Add your 1 cup sugar, baking soda and cream of tartar; mixing together. Beat egg and vanilla into the mixture. Slowly add the flour until entirely combined. At this point if you can manage to wait long enough, let the dough sit in the fridge for at least a half an hour. This step isn't absolutely necessary but it allows the dough to firm up so that it's easier to work with.
• Stir together the 1 teaspoons cinnamon and 2 tablespoons sugar. Shape the dough into small balls and coat with your cinnamon/sugar mixture. Place a few inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake in a preheated 375°F oven for 9 - 11 minutes (depending on how hot your oven runs). The recipe recommends taking them out of the oven when the edges are golden, but they are especially delicious slightly underbaked. They will be cool enough to eat in no time at all.

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Mix the first three ingredients thoroughly and set aside.
• In a separate bowl, mix the Flour, Cream of Tartar, Baking Soda, and Salt. Add the mixed dry ingredients to the first mixture.
• Dough may be chilled first. Make balls the size of walnuts and roll in a mixture of the remaining sugar and cinnamon.
• Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet. Do not place cookies too close together as the balls spread out.
