Tips: These snickerdoodle cookies were so yummy! My daughter helped me make them and it was nice because she could take the balls and roll them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture all by herself. Since we live at 5,300 feet in altitude, I often have to change baking recipes. For these cookies I used 1 1/3 cups of sugar and 2 tablespoons less butter. The cookies were the right texture but still flattened out a bit more than I would have liked. The next time I bake these I will also add 1-2 extra tablespoons of flour. I made things easier for myself by using my KitchenAid Stand Mixer
and my cookie scoop
to make sure the balls were the right size.Recipe from Betty Crocker Cookies & Bars Magazine
