A quick and easy no chill snickerdoodle cookie recipe that yields thick, chewy cookies with a warm cinnamon-sugar flavor and a rich brown sugar twist.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (227 grams) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 ½ cups (300 grams) packed brown sugar
  • ¼ cup (50 grams) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 ¾ cups (345 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons cinnamon, divided (1 tablespoon in dough, 1 tablespoon for rolling)
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar (for rolling mixture)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
  2. In a large bowl, beat 1 cup softened unsalted butter with 1 ½ cups packed brown sugar and ¼ cup granulated sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Beat in 2 large eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, sift together 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons cream of tartar, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 tablespoon cinnamon.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
  6. In a small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon cinnamon with ¼ cup granulated sugar for rolling.
  7. Scoop dough balls about 2 tablespoons each and roll them generously in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  8. Arrange dough balls 2 inches apart on baking sheets.
  9. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until edges are set but centers look slightly soft. Cookies will firm up as they cool.
  10. Let cookies rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.

Notes

If cookies flatten too much, chill dough for 10 minutes before scooping. Use packed brown sugar for moisture and chewiness. Don’t overbake to keep centers chewy. Oven temperatures may vary; adjust accordingly. For gluten-free, substitute flour with a 1:1 gluten-free blend with xanthan gum. For vegan, use dairy-free margarine and flax eggs.
