20 Dec 04 - 01:06 PM (#1361616) Subject: RE: BS: snickerdoodle christmas! From: Stilly River Sage Here is the recipe cut from the bag of Gold Medal flour many years ago: Snickerdoodles 1 1/2 cups sugar 1/2 cup margarine or butter 1/2 cup shortening 2 eggs 2 3/4 cups flour (Gold Medal, of course!) 2 teaspoons cream of tartar 1 teaspoon baking soda 1/4 teaspoon salt 3 tablespoons sugar (I find it needs 4 T) 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon (I find it needs 4 t) Heat oven to 400o. Mix 1 1/2 cups sugar, the margarine, shortening and eggs in large bowl. Stir in flour, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt. Shape dough by rounded teaspoonfuls [keep them pretty small!] into balls. Mix 3 [4] tablespoons sugar and the cinnamon; roll balls in mixture. Place about 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake until set, 8 to 10 minutes. Immediately remove from cookie sheet. About six dozen cookies. *If using self-rising flour, omit cream of tartar, baking soda and salt. Note: unbleached flour can be used in this recipe. High Altitude Directions (3500 to 6500 feet): Heat oven to 425o. Bake 7 to 10 minutes. I find that the ultimate good combination is a strong cup of hot Earl Grey tea and a saucer of cookies. They are addictive. SRS |

20 Dec 04 - 01:20 PM (#1361628) Subject: RE: BS: snickerdoodle christmas! From: KT Snickerdoodle has long been a common term in our home. When my 3 year old son was working on a lego masterpiece, his little brother came toddling over to "help." After the legos came tumbling down, three year old, in frustration, said, "Ooooooohh,....... Why, you little...................SNICKERDOODLE!!!!" It was the worst thing he could think of to call him! The name has stuck ever since. Okay, Tarheel, I'm off to check the cabinets for cream of tartar!! It's been a long time since we've had them around here. KT |
