These cookies were amazing! So simple to make, and then they were just crisp enough on the outside to hold together, and perfectly soft on the inside, these are going in my recipe book of Family Approved Recipes!

These didn’t turn out for me. They didn’t flatten, and there’s an odd aftertaste….maybe from all the cream of tartar and soda? I’ve never had a snickerdoodle before, so maybe this is how they’re supposed to taste? I’m going to try a Martha recipe, and see…before i give up on snickerdoodles completely. I did use butter instead of shortening.

HIGH ALTITUDE REVIEW: The taste of these cookies was wonderful, but unfortunately they turned out very hard and dry, when baked at my 7200′ elevation above sea level. I’ll make a second attempt tonight with some high altitude adjustments and report my findings! In the meantime, the first batch is getting gobbled up after a swim in some coffee or milk.

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 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.

Just a note for those who have had bad results…you must use shortening (not butter) for the recipe to come out right!

Very good cookies! I used all shortening and they taste great. If you like your cookies to be soft in the middle, cook for the least amount of time and remove from cookie sheet as soon as possible.

I just finished making these and am incredibly pleased with the results! It was so simple (I’m a college student in a res hall with limited supplies/space) and all of my residents loved them… They ate about the whole batch, so now I have to make more for a meeting I promised to bring food to. All in all, great cookie. Thanks so much for posting!!

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 are incredibly good and easy! It was hard for me not to eat the whole batch, so make sure you have somewhere to take them or someone to give them to after you make them. haha!
