The BEST SOFT and CHEWY Snickerdoodle Cookies
These snickerdoodle cookies are exactly what a classic snickerdoodle should be: soft and chewy in the center with slightly crisp edges, rolled generously in cinnamon sugar before baking. The cream of tartar gives them that distinctive tangy flavor that sets snickerdoodles apart from any other cookie. Adapted from a Bon Appetit recipe and genuinely one of the best versions you will ever make. Also try my Chocolate Crinkle Cookies, Espresso Chocolate Chip Cookies, or Lemon Lavender Shortbread.
