Ingredients
 

  • 2 tablespoons (28 g) salted butter melted
  • 3 tablespoons (36 g) granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons (8 g) milk any kind
  • ¼ teaspoon (0.25 teaspoon) vanilla
  • ¼ teaspoon (0.25 teaspoon) baking soda
  • ⅛ teaspoon (0.13 teaspoon) salt
  • ¼ teaspoon (0.25 teaspoon) cream of tartar
  • ⅓ cup (47 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar for rolling
  • ½ teaspoon (0.5 teaspoon) cinnamon for rolling

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper
  • In a small bowl mix together the melted butter and sugar. Add in vanilla and milk and mix again.
  • Mix in baking soda, salt, cream of tartar and flour and mix.
  • Shape one large cookie ball (or two medium) and roll in cinnamon and sugar. Place on the baking sheet. Chill the dough in the freezer for 5-10 minutes while the oven preheats if you prefer a thicker cookie.
  • Bake the cookie for 12-14 minutes, or until a light golden brown along the edges. Sprinkle with flaked salt as soon as it's done baking. If baking two medium cookies bake for 10-12 minutes.

Notes

If your dough feels dry at all, or doesn't come together into a ball easily add an extra teaspoon of milk. If your dough feels too sticky and you can't create a ball, add an extra 1-2 teaspoons of flour.
This makes one giant snickerdoodle cookie, or you can turn it into two.
I have given both cups and grams as measurements. Grams will be more precise, especially when measuring flour. If you don't have a kitchen scale, no problem! Just lightly spoon flour into your measuring cup to insure its not packed in there. Light and fluffy is the key.
