I have been trying different Snickerdoodle recipes for a long time trying to find the perfect ones and this are definitely the perfect ones! Everybody loved them!

Thank you so much for posting this recipe! I’ve tried so many different snickerdoodle recipes and this is the first one that has given me the snickerdoodle I remember from my childhood – perfectly crispy on the outside and moist and chewy on the inside. I’m hanging on to this recipe!

These snickerdoodles really are perfect! They were crisp on the outside and moist and chewy on the inside, sweet with just a little of that signature snickerdoodle bite. Snickerdoodles are my husband’s favorite cookie, he’s so glad I found this recipe.

These were perfect just as written and this is definitely my go-to recipe for snickerdoodles. Thanks!

These are absolutely amazing! I followed the recipe exactly. Believe it or not these are the first snickerdoodles that I’ve ever made!

These were exactly what snickerdoodles are supposed to be! Perfectly simple and delicious. I followed the recipe exactly, and was definitely happy with the results. Thank you for sharing!

So delicious! I made these with a few changes to the recipe: butter instead of shortening, a splash (~1 tsp) of vanilla, baking powder instead of cream of tartar, and replaced 1/3 of the flour with whole wheat flour. They came out very light and airy with a subtle flavor. I wasn’t sure what the ratio of sugar to cinnamon should be for the “mixture,” but next time I think I’d do a bit more cinnamon. Thanks for the great recipe!

I made these this weekend while I had some family in town and everyone loved them. Mine were a little on the crisp side (I love a chewy snickerdoodle), but I think I may have been making them a little smaller than called for. Either way – delicious.

These are the perfect Snickerdoodles! I made these the other day and my family and friends could not get enough of them. This will definitely be the recipe I use for snickerdoodles.

I made these to take to a barbecue yesterday, and everyone kept saying how good they were, definitely my new snickerdoodle recipe.

I made a few adjustments to this (half butter, half shortening because I love butter, baking powder instead of soda and cream of tartar since I didn’t have any, and I added a splash of vanilla and almond extracts) but overall what a great cookie! Crispy and brown on the bottom, the perfect combination of chewy and cakey in the middle. Great cookie!

I have this same recipe. Living in Wisconsin, we use butter, butter, and more butter. So I use all butter in mine, add a splash of vanilla, and chill the dough overnight. My youngest’s favorite cookie. I cook mine at 350 in my convection oven for 10 min.

Durn good Snickerdoodles. Made them for my kids on a cold snowy afternoon. What a hit.

Thanks, Megan, for this recipe. It rivals my 25 year old one for texture. Oh, the delicious-ness!

Okay, I was really excited to make these after the reviews from everyone else. Unfortunately, these did not turn out for me at all. I thought that I might be making a mistake, but I’ve made these 3 separate times now and while, the cookies do taste great, they never look very pretty and the dough is so sticky I can’s work with it without adding additional flour.
I must be doing something wrong because they have worked for everyone else, but for the life of me, I can’t figure out what it is.

mylilchunkymonkey, I’m trying to think of what could be going wrong! I am horrible at making “pretty” cookies and these are the only ones that always turn out perfect. What kind/brand of shortening are you using? Can’t figure out a reason why the dough would get so sticky!!
