Disneyland’s Snickerdoodle Cookies Recipe

Would it be too much to say that I have dreamt of these chewy Disneyland Snickerdoodle Cookies? Okay then I won’t say it, but I will say that after you have our snickerdoodle recipe, you’ll be the one dreaming of it.

They are so light, fluffy, and buttery with the great crunchy cinnamon sugar outside coating. My kids absolutely LOVE these. They do not last long in my kitchen.

I also enjoy bringing these to events and parties because they are an easy and classic cookie to make up. Plus you can even make them up ahead of time and freeze them.

Disneyland snickerdoodle cookies – How to make the best snickerdoodle cookies you ever tasted:

To begin making these awesome cookies, preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

Then, in your large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, and cream of tartar (I do this with a whisk). After they are well combined, set it aside for later.

In your medium-sized mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until the mixture becomes fluffy.

Then, add in the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until all of the ingredients are completely mixed in.

PRO TIP: The butter needs to be soft not melted in order to get the dough to the correct texture.

Next, you need to add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix everything together until all the ingredients are completely incorporated together.

Now, in your small bowl, add in the cinnamon and sugar and mix them together. This is going to be the topping of the cookie.

Taking the snickerdoodle cookie dough batter, roll the dough into 1 inch balls and then roll them in the cinnamon-sugar topping and place the ball on the baking sheet covered with parchment paper or lightly greased.

Use the bottom of a glass to slightly flatten the ball of dough.

Once all of the cookies have been placed on the cookie sheet, take the extra cinnamon-sugar mix and sprinkle the top of the cookies. Then, simply place the cookie sheet into the oven at 375 degrees for 7-8 minutes.

After the timer goes off, remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the cookies sheet for another 1-2 minutes. Then, snickerdoodle cookies from the pan and let them cool on a wire baking rack.

DO NOT OVERBAKE!! They will continue to cook for those 1-2 minutes on the baking sheet.

These Disneyland’s Snickerdoodle Cookies are soft and chewy! They won’t last long so you may want to make a double batch!

If you want another way to spice up the cookies you would always make up some of Sally’s baking addiction’s favorite cream cheese frosting and ice the cookies to send them over the top!
