Mini Snickerdoodles
 
Makes 105 cookies
Ingredients
  • 1 cup (227 grams) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 3⁄4 cups (350 grams) granulated sugar, divided
  • 1⁄2 cup (110 grams) firmly packed light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs (100 grams), room temperature
  • 1 1⁄2 teaspoons (6 grams) vanilla extract
  • 2 3⁄4 cups (344 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1 1⁄2 teaspoons (4.5 grams) cream of tartar
  • 1 teaspoon (5 grams) baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon (3 grams) kosher salt
  • 2 1⁄2 teaspoons (5 grams) ground cinnamon
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line 4 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter, 1 1⁄4 cups (250 grams) granulated sugar, and brown sugar at medium speed until fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes, stopping to scrape sides of bowl. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. With mixer on low speed, gradually add flour mixture to butter mixture, beating just until combined.
  4. In another medium bowl, stir together cinnamon and remaining 1⁄2 cup (100 grams) granulated sugar.
  5. Scoop dough by 1⁄2 tablespoonfuls (about 10 grams each), and roll into smooth 7⁄8-inch balls. Toss in cinnamon sugar until well coated. Place at least 11⁄2 inches apart on prepared pans.
  6. Bake, one batch at a time, until edges are lightly golden brown but centers still look slightly wet, 4 to 6 minutes. Let cool on pan for 5 minutes. Remove from pan, and let cool completely on wire racks.
