Delicious and very easy to make. The texture is fantastic; they have just the right chewy molasses cookie texture.

I haven’t made snicker doodles in ages. This is a nice twist to snicker doodles. I did a few changes halved the sugar between white and brown sugar. Halved the crisco between crisco and butter. If you do this chill the dough about 30mins. Next time I am going to just use crisco. Lovely recipe. Thank you for sharing.
