Snickerdoodles

A few weeks ago, my awesome husband made me some Snickerdoodles. They. Were. Delicious. I'm kind of spoiled. He's a really good cook and he even bakes a little too. I didn't take any prep pictures, but here's the recipe he used (from the Better Homes & Gardens cookbook). 

// 375 degrees // 10 minutes // makes 36 //

Ingredients
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

*Beat butter
*Add sugar (1 cup only), baking soda, and cream of tartar
*Beat in egg and vanilla until combined
*Beat in flour (as much as you can)
*Chill dough for one hour (I don't think we did this step and they still turned out)
*Combine 2 tablespoons sugar and cinnamon 
*Shape dough into balls and roll in sugar-cinnamon mixture
*Bake for 10-11 minutes @ 375 degrees

They were so tasty and delicious! Thicker than a regular cookie, but equally as yummy. They tasted even better the next day!
