I bet my youngest would like these. She loves cinnamon!
I can’t wait to make and eat snickerdoodles for Christmas! I’m not sure why I don’t make them any other time of the year, since they are soooo good!
I just love these cookies. I made them many times for my kids. Balisha
Hi Judy!

Hi Laurie, So glad you enjoyed the cookies! Thanks for the wonderful comment about the recipe.
they look so good
miss seeing you write on your blog
but understand
about the other callings
As a kid, we used to make them & instead of the cinnamon/sugar combo, we would roll them in red or green sugar. Instant Christmas cookies!!!!
