Soft & Chewy Chocolate Snickerdoodles
Ingredients
- Flour2
- Cocoa powder½ cups
- Cream1 tsp
- Baking soda1 tsp
- Cinnamon · ground1 ½ tsp
- Salt½ tsp
- Butter · softened1 cup
- Sugar1 ⅓ cups
- Brown sugar½ cups
- Egg2
- Vanilla1 tsp
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, cocoa, cream of tartar, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat the butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar on medium-high until creamy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat on medium-high until combined, scraping the bowl sides as needed.
- Beat in the dry ingredients on low speed until just combined. The dough will be thick.
- Cover and chill the dough for at least 2 hours (up to 3 days). If chilled longer than a few hours, leave it at room temperature for 20 minutes before scooping and rolling.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Line large baking sheets with parchment or silicone mats.
- Mix the 1/3 cup (70g) granulated sugar with 1 teaspoon cinnamon in a small bowl.
- Scoop about 1.5 tablespoons (35g) of dough per cookie, roll into balls and coat in the cinnamon sugar. Space them 2–3 inches apart on the lined sheets.
- Bake for about 13–15 minutes, until the edges are set and the centers look puffy. Cool on the sheet for 10 minutes, then move to a rack to cool completely. The cookies will flatten slightly as they cool.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
