Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1.5 cups granulated sugar
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2.75 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 1.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.25 cup granulated sugar (for coating)
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon (for coating)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition, then mix in the vanilla extract until combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
In a small bowl, combine the 0.25 cup granulated sugar and 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon for the coating.
Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to scoop the dough and roll it into 1.5-inch balls. Roll each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully coated.
Place the coated dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow room for spreading.
Bake one sheet at a time in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center still looks slightly underbaked.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your soft, chewy Snickerdoodle cookies! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
