World's Best Snickerdoodles (or so they say)

I've never been a fan of Snickerdoodles, so honestly I have never made them! I had some a few years ago that were SO GOOD! So I found this recipe, on Pinterest, and it claimed to be the "World's Best Snickerdoodles" so I thought I'd give it a try!

What you'll need:

• 1/2 cup butter (1 stick) softened
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/3 cup brown sugar
• 1 egg
• 1/2 tsp vanilla
• 1 1/2 cups flour
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 tsp cream of tarter

For rolling:

• 2 tbsp sugar
• 1 tsp cinnamon

1. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars with an electric mixer on high speed. Add the egg and vanilla and beat until smooth.

2. In another bowl, combine flour, salt, baking soda and cream of tarter.

3. Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix well.

4. Preheat oven to 300 degrees while you let the dough rest for 30-60 minutes in the refrigerator.

5. In a small bowl, combine sugar with the cinnamon for the topping.

6. Take out about 2 tbsp of dough and drop into the cinnamon sugar mixture and roll into a ball. (mine was pretty sticky, but took the ball shape after rolled in the cinnamon/sugar) Press it onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Repeat for the remaining cookies.

7. Bake the cookies for 12 to 14 minutes, and no more. The cookies may seem undercooked, but will continue to develop after they are removed from the oven. When the cookies have cooled they should be soft and chewy in the middle.

Makes 16-18 cookies... unless you're like me and dropped WAY too much batter on the pan, then it makes about 12 cookies!

This lone cookie is the very last one! So I guess they were pretty good... As for the "Worlds Best Snickerdoodles" I'll let you decide :)
