Indulge in these irresistible Snickering Granny Doodles that deliver the perfect combination of soft, buttery texture and warm cinnamon spice. The cream of tartar gives these classic cookies their signature tangy flavor and chewy center, while the cinnamon-sugar coating creates a delightful crackly exterior. They're wonderfully easy to prepare and make an excellent treat for after-school snacks, holiday cookie exchanges, or anytime your sweet tooth demands satisfaction. The bread slice storage tip ensures they stay deliciously soft for days! - Claude

Ingredients
1½ cups white sugar
1 cup butter, softened
2 large eggs
2¾ cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp cream of tartar
1 tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
 
Coating:
2 Tbsp white sugar
2 tsp ground cinnamon
Directions
Gather the ingredients.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease.
 
For the cookies:
Beat white sugar, butter, and eggs together in a large bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
Combine flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl.
Stir into creamed butter mixture until dough holds together.
 
For the coating:
Mix white sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl until well combined.
 
Forming and baking:
Form dough into balls (about 2 teaspoons in each ball), then roll in cinnamon-sugar coating.
Place dough balls about 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven on the center rack for 7 minutes.
Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
 
Recipe tips:
Cookies may look doughy when removed from the oven.
Allowing them to continue to cook on the baking sheet out of the oven prevents them from turning hard.
Store cooled cookies in a plastic container or plastic bag with 1 to 2 bread slices to keep cookies soft.

💬 Uncle Dave says...
These cookies are similar to traditional snickerdoodles but with a slightly different texture. The name "Granny Doodles" gives them a charming, homestyle appeal that will make anyone smile!
