Best Snickerdoodles – Don’t Lose This

Why is it called a Snickerdoodle? From Wikipedia: The Joy of Cooking claims that Snickerdoodles are probably German in origin, and the name is a corruption of the German word Schneckennudeln (“snail noodles”), a kind of pastry.

Not sure how that word adapted, but I do admit that there is something sweet and fun about the word.

I LOVE Snickerdoodle Cookies! My family searched for the best Snickerdoodle recipe for a long time, and we finally found THE ONE.

Ingredients
2 & 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1 cup butter, softened I use salted
2 cups white sugar, divided
2 large eggs
2 tsp. cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
Cream together the butter and 1 & 1/2 cups sugar until pale yellow, about 2-3 minutes.
Mix in eggs until well combined.
Add the flour mixture, 1/2 cup at a time, until the dough comes together.
In a separate, small bowl, combine 1/2 cup sugar and cinnamon together.
Shape dough into about 1-3/4 inch balls and roll the balls in the cinnamon sugar.
Space the balls about 3 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet.
Bake for 9-10 minutes. (Oven temperatures may vary. Cooking time may be more or less.)
