Fabulous Snicker doodle cookies....

Hi,

Today I made Snicker doodles with my (3 year old) cousin. It is rather hard to bake cookies with a toddler (because he likes putting his mouth on things and pouring stuff into stuff) but I still had fun:)  I hope that you find these cookies as wonderful as I do.

Ingredients:

2 sticks butter (softened)
1 1/2 cups coconut sugar
2 eggs
1 3/4 cups whole wheat pastry flour
1 cup all purpose flour
1 tsp cream of tartar
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp vanilla
2 tbsp cinnamon (for rolling the dough in)
1/2 cup sugar (also for rolling)

Prep and Making:

Mix the dry ingredients together.  In a separate bowl cream the butter and sugar then add eggs one at a time.  Add vanilla. Add dry ingredients. Mix all together.  Preheat the oven to 350. Chill dough for 30 minutes. While the dough is chilling mix the sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl. When dough is done chilling roll into small balls and roll in sugar mixture. Bake for 8-10 minutes. Cool then eat.

Thanks for reading!
