Snickerdoodles are a classic and definitely make me think of the holidays! There’s nothing better than baking as the weather cools off and filling your home with the scent of warm spices like cinnamon in this easy classic cookie recipe. This recipe doesn’t use cream of tartar (which many snickerdoodle recipes do use).

Cream of tartar is something I didn’t have available the day I wanted to make these. I don’t keep it in my pantry all the time because I really hardly ever have use for it. I also didn’t want to go to the store that day. The result: this delicious recipe that tastes just like the original! whether you have cream of tartar available at home or not, use this recipe for delicious Snickerdoodles!

Snickerdoodles have always been a favorite of mine. You just can’t beat the soft cookie full of cinnamon sugar goodness! They are perfect with coffee, tea or some fresh apple cider! Cinnamon is such a versatile spice! That’s just another thing to love about snickerdoodles, they are great year round!
