Tasty cookies, BUT–I could taste the cream of tartar. Egad! Great texture, however.

I’m going to try these. I really like the joy of cooking recipe too. Simple but perfect. These look quite similar!

My all time favorite cookie. I have always used my grandmas recipe which includes nutmeg with the cinnimon. I cant imagine snicker doodles with out nutmeg.

Yum! I am baking these right now and have already eaten 3 or them…oops! I took the advice and added 1 tsp. of vanilla and baked them for 8 minutes and they are great!

Ohmygoodness. I have never had a snickerdoodle cookie, but these. THESE. They turned out (for once!) exactly like the photos, only more plump (probably because I used half shortening, half butter). Crisp edges, soft, meltingly pillowy insides…..They match everything in the default description. (: THANK YOU.

I’m famous in my family for being obsessed with Smitten Kitchen. In fact, I talk about it so much that after I served her your Challah, my grandmother decided to google it. She accidentally entered “Smitten Kitten” into the address bar. Needless to say, it was not a baking site. Anyway, I just wanted to thank you for all of your amazing recipes and perfect instructions. I just surprised my boyfriend with these snickerdoodles and he said, “These are amazing. They’re even better than my mom’s. Don’t tell her I said that.” I bow down to you, Deb.

Snickerdoodles are the best.
Even though I’m from NZ, they were a total staple cookie my Nana and Mum would bake. Maybe it’s cause my Nana travelled a lot, especially Europe. So Snickerdoodles have been consumed by my family ever since I can remember!

Just made these, and they turned out great!! Delicious! I don’t mind that they aren’t puffy…I didn’t have any shortening, so I googled for a recipe and am glad I found this one. I also neglected to read directions & chill them first, and they still turned out well. Thank you.

Made these for a New Years treat. Added 1tsp cinn to batter and one package of Heath bar chips. Just a little something different! Still rolled in the sugar and I baked at 375 for 12 minutes.

I just wanted to say that this made amazing cookies that converted my chocolate loving soul into a melty puddle of happiness. I used 2 teaspoons of baking powder to replace the baking soda and cream of tartar (because you can’t find them in my part of the world) and they turned out pretty good, if I do say so myself.
