Snickerdoodle Cookies


Snickerdoodle Cookies are synonymous to Christmas to me. If Christmas had a taste, it'd be this cookie. Wouldn't you agree? These are a simple, great cookie and always a crowd pleaser.

I used a different recipe this year and think it came out soft and crunchy all at once which is always my favorite consistency.
