Small Batch Snickerdoodles
These small batch snickerdoodles gives you 4 chewy cookies, coated in cinnamon and sugar. They're perfect when you're craving a little something sweet!
Ingredients
- 5 tablespoon salted butter room temp
- 6 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 large egg yolk room temp
- ¼ teaspoon (0.25 teaspoon) cream of tartar
- ¼ teaspoon (0.25 teaspoon) baking soda
- ⅕ teaspoon (0.2 teaspoon) salt
- ¾ cup (93.75 g) all-purpose flour
Cinnamon/Sugar Mixture
- 2 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the butter and sugar in a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add egg yolk and mix again until smooth.
- Slowly mix in flour, cream of tartar, soda and salt, being careful not to over mix. I usually stop when I still have some flour remnants around the bowl.
- Scoop the dough into large balls, I like to use a ¼ cup cookie scoop for these. Roll in cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Place 4 cookie dough balls on your lined baking sheet. Bake the cookies for 11-13 minutes. You're looking for a nice light golden brown around the edges, and some crackling along the top.
Notes
I love adding a little flaked salt on top of these sweet cookies.
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.
