Snickerdoodles-a summer favorite.[/caption]
School is out and the kids are looking for treats. At my house, that means lots of cookies. One of their favorites is Snickerdoodles. If you’ve never had them you are missing out on a yummy cookie and they are a nice change from the usual chocolate chip. My kids even think it is fun to help me make them. Here is the recipe:
Snickerdoodles
1 ½ cups Butter or Butter Powder* ¾ tsp. Cream of Tartar
