snickerdoodles
(3 ratings)
There are lots of snickerdoodle recipes. I originally found this one in The Beverly Lewis Amish Heritage cookbook, but have tweaked it a bit to fit my family's tastes. The original recipe says that this makes 3 dozen cookies.......but I guess I make mine larger and only get about 1/2 of that.
