Dough

Method

Dough

  1. 1

    Dry ingredients

    In a bowl, whisk together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, salt, and 2 teaspoons cinnamon.

  2. 2

    Cream butter and sugars

    In another bowl, beat the softened butter with granulated sugar and brown sugar until pale and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add wet ingredients

    Beat in the egg and vanilla until well combined.

  4. 4

    Combine with dry

    Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet until a soft dough forms.

  5. 5

    Add Snickers

    Gently fold in the chopped Snickers pieces until evenly distributed.

  6. 6

    Chill dough (optional)

    Refrigerate the dough for 15-20 minutes to make handling easier.

Shaping and Baking

  1. 7

    Preheat and prep

    Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment.

  2. 8

    Roll and coat

    In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon for rolling.

  3. 9

    Portion dough

    Scoop dough into about 1.5 tablespoon portions and roll into balls.

  4. 10

    Coat cookies

    Roll each dough ball in the cinnamon sugar coating until evenly coated.

  5. 11

    Bake

    Place cookies on the prepared sheet, about 2 inches apart. Bake 9-11 minutes, until edges are set and centers still look slightly soft.

  6. 12

    Cool

    Let cookies rest on the sheet for 3 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
