Snickerdoodle Doo’s – Recipe! Old Classic with a Twist!

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

Snickerdoodles are a sugar cookie dough, which are rolled in a cinnamon & sugar mixture and then baked.  The leaveners used in Snickerdoodles range from; cream of tarter to baking soda and eggs.  I use a combination of them for a cookie with nice lift, but still has a slight crunch around the edges.

I remember eating Snickerdoodles often as a kid and next to chocolate chip cookies, it was our second favorite cookie to bake in our house.  There is nothing like the fresh smell of Snickerdoodles baking in the oven, the cinnamon alone will have the neighbors popping over to try one.

Toffee chips are my extra Doo in my Snickerdoodle Doo’s.  I love the toffee cinnamon combination and it adds a nice texture and mild chew to the cookies.  Snickerdoodle Doo’s make a great dessert, especially for those who prefer something other than chocolate.  They also pack up nicely as gifts for the holidays.

Ingredients

2 sticks butter, room temperature

2 cups granulated sugar, divided

2 tablespoons brown sugar
