  • SNICKERDOODLES... Cookies.

    This is on the bottom of a cake tin I had bought recently. I've already posted it on the chat thread so I thought I'd share it with all of you...Enjoy .

    SNICKERDOODLES

    Ingredients

    Cookies

    360 grams plain flour
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    227 grams unsalted butter, room temperature
    300 grams granulated white sugar
    2 large eggs
    1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
    Coating:
    66 grams granulated white sugar
    2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

    Method

    In a large bowl whisk together the flour, salt, and baking powder.

    In the bowl of your electric mixer (or with a hand mixer), beat the butter and sugar until smooth (about 2 to 3 minutes).

    Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Beat in the vanilla extract. Add the flour mixture and beat until you have a smooth dough. If the dough is soft, cover and refrigerate until firm enough to roll into balls (one to two hours).

    Preheat oven to 190 degrees C and place rack in the center of the oven. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

    Shape the dough into 2.5 cm round balls.

    Coating

    In a large shallow bowl mix together the sugar and cinnamon or Ginger.

    Roll the balls of dough in the cinnamon sugar and place on the prepared pan, spacing about 5 cm apart. Then, using the bottom of a glass, gently flatten each cookie to about 1.5 cm thick.

    Bake the cookies for about 8 – 10 minutes, or until they are light golden brown around the edges. Remove from oven and place on a wire rack to cool.

    Can store in an airtight container, at room temperature, for about 10 – 14 days.

    Makes about 48 cookies.

            I love snickerdoodles!

            I make huge batches and freeze them after forming them into balls. Then before baking, I lightly wet the tops and dip in the sugar cinnamon mixture. It won't stick when they're frozen otherwise. Then I just bake as normal, right from frozen. I find I don't need to add any extra time, and the only difference is that they stay a bit puffier and chewier in the middle.

            But it means I can pull a few out of the freezer to bake when the mood hits. :-D
