What are snicker doodle cookies they are an old fashioned cookie that have a sugar cinnamon coating and a sweet and buttery flavor. These classic cookies are topped with cinnamon sugar and are so good we promise you won't be able to eat just one. A great score with kids and adults, they are so fast to put together too! I actually got it from an old recipe that I found in an old clipped out of a newspaper. They store great, and I didn't have any of the problems many others did! I never need to put these in the refrigerator first either. Others prefer to flatten them gently with the palm of the hand, allowing the cookie to create its own crackled pattern as it bakes. The cream of tartar has a way of combining with the cinnamon to create the gentle bite of spice that the cookie is famous for. But, what is cream of tartar? Cream of tartar is an acidic powder extracted during wine making, stabilizes egg whites and increases their heat tolerance.

What separates the snicker doodle from the traditional sugar cookie is the crispy coating of white sugar and cinnamon.

How to bake

When I make this recipe, I usually pour off just a tiny bit of the egg white, because I like my cookies puffy. Hope this helps, because I've tried a lot of snicker doodle recipes, and this is by far the best, I also take the cookies off the baking sheet asap so they don't have time to heat up and lose their puffiness.
