Great American Cookies' Snickerdoodles

Recipe Ingredients

1/2 cup	99g / 3.5oz	Butter - (1 stick) - softened
1/2 cup	99g / 3.5oz	Granulated sugar
1/3 cup	53g / 1.9oz	Brown sugar
1		Egg
1/2 teaspoon	2.5ml	Vanilla
1 1/2 cups	93g / 3.3oz	Flour
1/4 teaspoon	1.3ml	Salt
1/2 teaspoon	2.5ml	Baking soda
1/4 teaspoon	1.3ml	Cream of tartar
		Topping
2 tablespoons	30ml	Granulated sugar
1 teaspoon	5ml	Cinnamon

Recipe Instructions

In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars with an electric mixer on high speed. Add the egg and vanilla and beat until smooth.

In another bowl, combine the flour, salt, baking soda and cream of tartar. Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix well.

Preheat oven to 300 degrees while you let the dough rest for 30 to 60 minutes in the refrigerator. In a small bowl combine the sugar with the cinnamon for the topping.

Take about 2 1/2 tablespoons of the dough and roll it into a ball. Roll this dough in the cinnamon/sugar mixture and press it onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Repeat for the remaining cookies.

Bake the cookies for 12 to 14 minutes and no more. The cookies may seem undercooked, but will continue to develop after they are removed from the oven. When the cookies have cooled they should be soft and chewy in the middle.

This recipe yields 16 to 18 cookies.
