Snicker Doodles!

What do you do when there's two feet of snow outside, its cold and you can't leave the house because the roads are so bad?

You bake snicker doodles!!

For those of you who don't know what snicker doodles are, they are reeeeeally delicious cookies that are rolled in cinnamon and sugar before they are baked. They are quite yummy =)

The Recipe

1 Cup of Butter

1 1/2 Cups of sugar

2 Eggs

2 3/4 Cups of Flour

2 Teaspoons of Cream of Tartar

1 Teaspoon of Baking Soda





First you mix the butter and sugar together and the add the eggs. Once all those are mixed thoroughly together, you can add the tartar, backing soda an the flour.
If its sticky and/or hard to roll into balls, then you can chill it in the fridge. If its not the you can just start to roll it into balls. The balls should be about the size of a medium strawberry (only round, obviously haha).

Next, you mix together 2 tablespoons of sugar and 2 teaspoons of cinnamon together in a bowl and roll the balls of dough around in it until they are covered:






Once they are rolled place them on a cookie sheet and press them just a little bit so they are slightly flattened on the top:







Bake them at 350 degrees for ten minutes. When they are done put them on a wire cooling rack:







Then eat 'em!
