Why We Love Snickerdoodle Cookies
Say Hello to the King of Christmas Cookies… The Snickerdoodle. This is the cookie so many of us remember making with mom, especially around the holidays. Little hands, rolling sweet dough balls in cinnamon sugar. Soft pillowy cookies, hot out of the oven, kissed with spice. The tangy-sweet taste of holiday spirit.
Snickerdoodle Sandwich Cookies
Classic snickerdoodles are pretty spectacular on their own. However, squish two snickerdoodle cookies together with fluffy frosting and you’ve got something truly magical. Today’s Snickerdoodle Sandwich Cookie Recipe is a ramped up double-decker golden glittering snickerdoodle cookie treat filled with ultra soft cinnamon marshmallow filling. The cookies themselves are a flatter version of my mom’s perfect snickerdoodle recipe, which makes them easier to sandwich and stack. (If you want to make the fluffier version seen below, chill the dough for one hour before baking.) The cinnamon frosting is a hybrid of half traditional frosting and half marshmallow fluff, which makes it extra light and airy… More like a “cream pie” or whoopie pie filling. These soft cookies look fabulous on holiday cookie platters, and are just the sort of treat to take to school or office parties. They are utterly divine in taste and texture. Are you convinced to try them? Let’s do this!
