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.

yep…pretty much the best snickerdoodles ever. we made one batch last night…ate them all in less than an hour (that happens when you have 3 sons, their friends, girlfriends, etc.) and turned around and made a second batch. this time, however, i ran out of sugar so i used 1c white sugar, 1/2 c brown sugar and they turned out just as beautifully. thanks, deb! :-)

hi deb! love your blog! i’m having issues with the balls flattening out while cooking. they start to spread slightly and then stop half way. since this is a test batch for christmas, i’ve halved the recipe. do you think that is the problem? any suggestions? THANKS!

In an airtight container at room temperature, they should get softer on the second day.

Please…! Someone tell me how to get these to remain softer in the middle. After only a day, they’re crunchy(but still delicious!) through and through. I followed bake times precisely…what could it be??

These are absolutely AMAZING! A friend of mine just made me a batch and I begged her for the recipe. Can’t wait to try it myself!

this. was. fantastic. now i’m packaging cookies for gifts so i don’t eat all of them myself :) mine came out pretty cake-like. i’m one of the few people who wish they did come out flat. i don’t own an electric hand mixer so i really put my strength into mixing that butter and sugar. i chilled the cookie dough overnight which may explain the thickness. tbh i don’t think you need to have so much sugar and cinnamon for rolling. it’s a shame to have to throw it away!
