Snickerdoodles
Description
I could make up a moving story about how my mum used to bake them for me on cold winter days. It would make quite the background for this recipe. Instead, I will tell you the truth. The first time I tried this recipe was because I found the name so funny. After having a good laugh, I could truly appreciate the chewy deliciousness of this cinnamon-loaded sugar cookie.
