GRANDMA'S SNICKERDOODLES

This recipe from my German Grandma makes the best Snickerdoodles. They are my kids favorite cookie. If you like them chewy like we do, cook them until the edges just start to brown, otherwise you'll have a crunchy cookie.

Grandma D's Famous Snickerdoodles image

It's a bold statement, but in my opinion --- There has been no Snickerdoodle yet to top Grandma D's Snickerdoodles. I've tried a dozen variations. These are famous in our family for good reason.
