Snickerdoodle Cookies

A few weeks ago I was helping my cousin over the phone with the snickerdoodle blondies, and it made me crave snickerdoodles myself. So I decided to test out a new snickerdoodle cookie recipe I had. I gathered everything together and whipped a batch of these cookies up! They turned out fantastic, they were soft in the centers with a slight crisp around the edges, in my opinion...perfection! These stayed fresh for several days, my work friends and some of my family got to enjoy them as well. This is my new favorite cookie recipe!
