Snickerdoodles

Ive found this to be the best snickerdoodle recipe. They melt in your mouth. I like to make them bite size, that way you get more servings. 

8 oz unsalted butter
10 oz sugar
2 eggs

13 oz flour 
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1/2 teaspoon salt

cream the first three ingredients together

combine all dry ingredients in separate bowl and add to butter mixture. 

Cinnamon Sugar Mixture
1 1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup cinnamon

mix together

Roll into balls and roll in cinnamon sugar mixture before baking.

Preheat oven to 300* and bake for 9-10 minutes. 
Turn trays half way thru baking time.

Cookies will be light brown at edge and will be slightly collapsed. 

If you want to make peanut butter sandwiches with these cookies, they are awesome. Heres a little peanut butter buttercream recipe to make these fancy sandwich cookies
