How To Make snickerdoodles

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Step 2

In a small shallow bowl, blend 2 tsp of cinnamon & 3 tbsp sugar together and set aside.
Step 3

In a medium bowl, sift flour, baking soda, cream of tartar & salt together. Using an electric mixer, blend butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla together. Mix until smooth. Add flour mixture to butter mixture gradually, mixing well to form cookie dough.
Step 4

Using a tablespoon, scoop out dough and roll into a ball. Roll in the cinnamon-sugar mixture then place on a cookie sheet. Continue with remainder of the dough placing cookies 1 inch apart on the cookie sheet. These cookies will spread.
