Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.75 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter (softened)
- 0.5 cups granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups honey
- 1 unit large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (for coating)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream together the softened butter and 0.5 cups of granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the honey, egg, and vanilla extract to the bowl with the creamed butter-sugar mixture. Mix until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients (from step 2) to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined and a soft dough forms.
In a small bowl, mix together the ground cinnamon and 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar to create the coating.
Scoop about 1.5 tablespoons of dough and roll it into a ball using your hands. Roll the dough ball in the cinnamon-sugar coating until fully covered.
Place the coated dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each ball.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers look slightly underbaked for a soft texture.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your soft and chewy Honey Snickerdoodles!
