Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the cookies will taste. Use real butter, not margarine, and use good-quality flour and sugar.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough helps the cookies hold their shape and prevents them from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough can make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The cookies should be baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes, or until they are just starting to turn golden brown.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them: The cookies will continue to firm up as they cool. Let them cool completely before storing them in an airtight container.

Conclusion:

These Christmas snickerdoodles are a delicious and festive treat that are perfect for cookie exchanges or holiday parties. They are easy to make and can be customized with different flavors or toppings. With a little planning, you can make a large batch of these cookies to share with friends and family this holiday season.
