Jo Anne's Notes:

Everything "snickerdoodle" is okay by me. My mom used to bake cookies every Friday for my brothers and I. And guess what? Snickerdoodle Cookies were my favorite! So now, I find this snickerdoodle cupcake recipe and I am in heaven!!!

 

Directions

1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prep 2 - 12-cupcake pans with cupcake liners.
2
Sift together in a large bowl, flours, baking powder, salt and 2 tsp. cinnamon.
3
Cream together butter and sugar till pale and fluffy.
4
Add eggs one at a time, blend after each egg added, then add the vanilla extract.
5
Add the flour mixture in 3 increments, alternate with 2 additions of the milk. Blend well, do not over mix.
6
Divide the batter evenly into the cupcake tins, fill 3/4 full.
7
Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, rotate the cupcake pan halfway through the baking process. Do a toothpick test and if it comes out clean, it's done.
8
Remove the cupcakes from the oven onto a wire rack, let cool for 20 minutes before removing cupcakes from the pan.
9
With the remaining cinnamon and sugar, mix together and sprinkle over the tops of the cupcakes.
10
FROSTING:
11
With mixer on low speed, blend butter till fluffy, about 30 seconds.
12
Add sugar, 3 Tbsp. milk and vanilla extract, blend lightly. Add cinnamon and continue mixing until sugar is well incorporated.
13
Increase speed and beat till fluffy, if the frosting is stiff, add the remaining 1 Tbsp. of milk. Blend well.
14
Be sure that the cupcakes are completely cooled. Then frost or pipe your cupcakes.
15
NOTE: YOU CAN ALSO ADD A 1 TSP OF CINNAMON TO A CAN OF STORE-BOUGHT BUTTERCREAM FROSTING.

Hi,

Can you tell me what is Cake Flour? I'm in canada and have never heard of cake flour? Is this just regular flour? Thank you.

I'm very interested in your recipe.

I have one not ginger snap, but could be altered... banana cupcake with a molasses frosting and a molasses cookie on top... but I would think you could use any spice cake recipe with this frosting and cookie too... just a thought... Banana Cupcakes with Molasses Frosting
