I’ve been making these Snickerdoodles forever. I remember making these one winter’s day when a neighbor and I took our kids sledding at a nearby hill. I made a thermos of home made soup, and we had Snickerdoodles for dessert. Everything tasted so good especially when your out in the cold. Somehow your appreciation of the taste of food takes on a new meaning in 20 degree weather!
These are basically a sugar cookie that rolled in cinnamon sugar. They are super tasty for any occasion!
