The perfect Snickerdoodle!
Before Christmas my sister in law made some Snickerdoodles and brought them over for us, they were delicious. After they were gone I immediately wanted to make some more, so I began searching cookbooks I had for a recipe. Thinking nothing of it, I picked one and made it. They were not good. They got too fat and weren't soft. Disappointed, I text her asking to send me the recipe, but she was not at home and when she got home she didn't remember. I let it go for a week or two and decided to look around online. I found another one that promised soft and chewy and had claims that it was the perfect Snickerdoodle. Disappointed, it wasn't either. It was too thin and crunchy. I was determined now. I searched the internet again and found a few on the Tasty Kitchen website. I printed out 4 different ones. Two that I printed only had one small difference, 1/2 tsp. vanilla. I picked one and made it and they are the winner, soft, chewy, everything I was looking for.
Here is the recipe.
