El Snicker? Snickerdoodle-ito? Let’s not butcher the Spanish language, mmkay. We’ll just call them Mexican Snickerdoodles.
They are chocolatey with a hint of cinnamon and cayenne. They have a soft interior with the crunchy outer layer of a traditional snickerdoodle. They are excellent, and I mean excellent, with a glass of cold milk.
Preheat your oven to 400ºF. Mix sugar, butter, eggs, and vanilla. Then, stir in flour, cocoa, cream of tartar, baking soda, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, and salt. Form the dough into 1-inch balls.
For coating the cookie dough, mix the sugar and cinnamon. Coat each dough ball with the mixture. Place on an ungreased (or use a Silpat) cookie sheet. Bake 8 to 10 minutes. Cool 1 minute on the baking sheet, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Your recipe introduction made me laugh and made my day! I have a who’s fluent in Spanish and he probably would have come up with something like that, too!
