Snickerdoodle Cookies
Snickerdoodles are our favorite cookies to share with loved ones over the holidays. This recipe was passed down from my mom and late grandmother. They are the perfect balance of crispy on the outside with a soft, chewy center. We love how the spice from cinnamon envelopes the popping, delicious flavor without being overly sweet.
