Left a comment too – too lazy to retype. Long story short – We experimented and added 1 tsp of vanilla and refrigerated dough for about 20 minutes. Whether you refrigerate the dough or not, we really enjoyed the batch with the added vanilla. Great, easy cookie!

I was looking for a Snickerdoodle recipe that didn’t use shortening, and these turned out just fantastic. Great recipe for getting a taste of home for expats!

AMAZING!!!! Made these for my boss (they’re his favorites) and co-workers and they’ve disappeared at a rapid pace!

I loved the recipe but if u replace the butter with 3/4 smart butter 1/4 a mixeture of butter milk and olive oil makes cookies soft and bouncy

A yummy alternative to the cream of tartar recipe, but I like the other version better.

We made two batches and added 1 tsp of vanilla to one batch. We thought the added vanilla kicked them up a notch.
We really liked the recipe! The cookies turned out nice and round (rarely happens for me).
One other variation we tried. In one batch, we made the recipe as is (the dough was a little gooey but still able to roll ball and roll them in the sugar/cinnamon just fine – cookies baked perfectly into a flat round shape – tender throughout).
In another batch, we chilled the dough for about 20 minutes. Dough was less gooey and easier to roll into a ball. The end result created a slightly different cookie – slightly risen in the middle (like I’ve seen a lot of classic snicker doodles). They were tender in the middle, with a little bit of crunch to the edge (we baked the same amount of time – 12 minutes (rotating the pan at the 6 minute mark)).
Still an awesome cookie either way you try it.

These were the best snickerdoodles I have ever made! We finished ours in twenty-four hours!

These are awesome; with or without the cinnamon/sugar! My kids gobbled them up.

I made these this week, and they turned out great! I baked them for 12 minutes as well, otherwise they weren’t nice and soft.
The whole family loved them, even my extreemly picky 6 year old!

These turned out really delicious! I noticed with my oven, though, that if I let the edges brown then I overcooked the cookies. 12 minutes was good. 15 was when they started to get brown and they ended up a bit crunchier than I like them. Thanks for the recipe!
