Snickerdoodles Without Cream of Tartar

🧂 Ingredients

• 1 cup butter

  (salted, softened, at room temperature)
• 1½ cup sugar
• 2 large eggs
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoon baking powder
• 2¾ cups all-purpose flour

  (spooned and leveled)
• ¼ cup sugar
• 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

• 1 To begin, preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C/Gas Mark 6). Line a baking sheet
  with parchment paper.
• 2 In a large mixing bowl, cream together your 1 cup butter and 1½ cup sugar.
  Afterward, add the 2 large eggs, one at a time, and mix to combine in between
  each addition.
• 3 Next, stir in the 2 teaspoon baking powder and ¼ teaspoon salt. Slowly mix in
  the 2¾ cups all-purpose flour until a dough is formed.
• 4 In a small mixing bowl, gently stir together the ¼ cup sugar and 2 teaspoon
  ground cinnamon. Set it aside.
• 5 Scoop out some of the dough and then roll it into 1¼-inch balls. After each ball
  is formed, roll them into the cinnamon sugar and then place them onto your
  prepared cookie sheet.
• 6 Bake in the center of the middle rack of your preheated oven at 400°F (205°C/Gas
  Mark 6) for 8-10 minutes. The bottoms of the cookies should be a light golden
  color when done.
• 7 Once baked, remove the snickerdoodles from the oven. Allow the cookies to cool
  for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to
  finish cooling.
