Best Chewy Snickerdoodle Cookies

Ingredients
 

  • 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
  • 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
  • 1 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoons salt
  • 3/4 cup butter, room temperature
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar, plus 3 tablespoons for top of cookies
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a darker cookie sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large mixer bowl, cream the butter and 1 1/2 cups of sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as necessary.
  • Mix in the vanilla extract until well blended.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix until fully combined.
  • In a small bowl, combine the remaining 3 tablespoons of sugar with the cinnamon.
  • Form the cookie dough into one-tablespoon-sized balls.
  • Roll each dough ball in the cinnamon sugar mixture and place them on the prepared cookie sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 6-8 minutes.
  • Once done, remove the cookies from the oven and let them rest for 2-3 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
  • Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container.
