How to Make Snickerdoodle Great American Cookie Co Copycat

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, cream together the butter and both sugars until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cream of tartar, and baking soda.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. In a small bowl, combine the cinnamon and sugar for the coating.
  7. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls.
  8. Roll each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
  9. Place the coated dough balls onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
  10. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. They will seem slightly soft in the center when you remove them from the oven.
  11. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
