SUGAR FREE SNICKERDOODLE COOKIES
This is the one time of the year that we see Snickerdoodle cookies. That is why I need some Sugar Free Snickerdoodle Cookies.
I have always wondered about the origin of this cookie. The first time that I ever heard of it I was certain that there must have been a famous candy bar in it. Boy, I was upset when I learned that there was not that candy bar in this cookie.
As a matter of fact, there really is no chocolate or caramel in this cookie. If I were to rename it, I would call this a cinnamon cookie instead. But, that is enough about me and my little rant here about this cookie.

Ingredients
Sugar Alternative- 1 1/2 cups equivalent to sugar. Optional- extra for dusting on top of cookies. Cinnamon- 2 teaspoons- be sure to use cinnamon that does not have sugar added to it . Flour- 2 3/4 cups see post for low carb alternative. Cream of Tartar- 2 teaspoons. Baking Soda- 1 teaspoon. Salt- pinch. Butter- 1 cup softened. Can sub in shortening for half 1/2 cup. Eggs- 2.
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400 and prep your pan for nonstick. I am a fan of using parchment paper. In a small bowl, combine together the optional additional sugar alternative and the cinnamon. Set this aside as it will be used for the topping (this is step #2).
Using another bowl, sift together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. Set this aside as it will be used just after the next step. Using a mixer, in a mixing bowl cream together the butter, the sugar alternative and the eggs.
This will take a couple of minutes on medium. When the butter, eggs and sugar becomes creamy you can slowly mix in the dry ingredients (flour, etc) . To bake, simply roll the individual cookies into 1 - 1 1/4" balls. Roll each ball through the cinnamon from step #2 and then place on your prepped baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes, remove from the sheet and allow to cool on rack.
