Snickerdoodle Cookies

I must admit this is the perfect snickerdoodle cookie, I promise!  ..Tammy

This is an old recipe, and yes, it has cream of tartar in it.  That is the secret to a better snickerdoodle cookie.  This dough is mixed, then chilled.  

When baked these come right out of the oven with the perfect crunch around the edges and soft in the middle.  Oh you want  be dissapointed in this recipe.

To make sure they are the perfect size to bake properly use this same size cookie scoop https://amzn.to/3AhmlAp and if you want to purchase this amazing cooling rack, here is a link to that as well https://amzn.to/3AImWMK
