Adam’s Snickerdoodle Cookie Recipe

Ingredients

I have two amazing sons Connor who is 15 and Adam who is 13. They both are amazing boys who love to help their mom out. Adam especially loves to help me bake and cook. When he was in the 5th grade he had to do a project and that is when he came up with his own Snickerdoodle cookie recipe. We call them Adam’s snickerdoodle cookies. They are so soft and chewy. We all love them! He had to make them the other day for another school project and so I thought why not share them with you. He took a few recipes and modified them and came up with this…

First you need to cream the butter and sugars in a mixing bowl using a mixer. Then add the eggs and vanilla and mix until combined. Next in a separate bowl combine all your dry ingredients. Then you add a little of the mixed dry ingredients to the wet ingredients a little at a time and then mix. You will do this until all of the dry ingredients are mixed into the wet ingredients.

You then need to chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes. After the dough is chilled take it out and start rolling the dough into small balls and dip them in the cinnamon and sugar mixture. Set them on a cookie sheet to bake. Bake for 12 minutes. Makes around 2 dozen.
