snickerdoodle cookie

These Brown Butter Snickerdoodles are simply irresistible. Do you love perfectly soft and chewy in the middle and crisp on the edges? This is the cookie for you! They’re rolled in plenty of cinnamon and sugar for that classic Snickerdoodle finish.

Brown Butter Snickerdoodle Cookies

(282 grams) unsalted butter, browned

(380 grams) granulated sugar

eggs

teaspoon (5 milliliters) pure vanilla extract

(420 grams) all-purpose flour

½ teaspoon baking soda

½ teaspoon cream of tartar

¼ cup (47.5 grams) granulated sugar

tablespoon (7.5 grams) cinnamon

To brown the butter, use a small saucepan, and cut the butter into pieces. Melt the butter over medium heat and allow it to boil and bubble. Once it’s starts boiling, stir it frequently and it will slowly start to turn an amber color and releases a nutty aroma. Remove the butter from the heat and place in the freezer for 20-25 minutes (but no longer!) and then stir until creamy.

In your stand mixer, combine the butter with the sugar and beat on medium speed until well creamed together.

Add the eggs and vanilla extract. Mix into the butter and sugar until the eggs are well beaten.

In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, baking soda and cream of tartar. Slowly add into batter and beat on medium low speed until well combined and dough starts to form.

In a small bowl, combined cinnamon and sugar and stir to combine. Use a large cookie scoop (3 tbsp) and scoop cookie dough into the cinnamon sugar mixture. Roll around to coat the cookie.

Place the cookies on a silicone lined baking sheet. Refrigerate dough for a minimum of 60 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350° F. Place the cookies about 2 inches apart on your baking sheet. If your cookies have been refrigerated longer than 2 hours, allow them to rest at room temperature for 10 minutes before baking.

Bake at 350° F for 10-12 minutes. Allow cookie to cool on the baking sheet for several minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

I love this recipe. I’ve made it many times and it’s always a favorite that turns out perfectly each time!
