snickerdoodles.

I kind of pride myself on my snickerdoodles. They are slightly crunchy on the outside and so super soft on inside and they stay like that for a few days (in an airtight container). I made these for my brother and sent them to him over in the missionary training center.

My favorite thing about snickerdoodles and the most important ingredient- cream of tartar. Ohhhh yum. Sometimes I crave raw snickerdoodle dough more than chocolate chip cookie dough. Gasp!

I have had this recipe forever and I really don't remember where it came from. But it's foolproof. So here it is.
