Save 20%! Old-Fashioned Snickerdoodle Cookies

"I can't make snickerdoodles as good as yours!"

She owns a cookie shop in the city. She wanted to buy our snickerdoodle cookie mix in bulk.

It's not her fault. We have better cinnamon.  Cinnamon is graded by the percentage of volatile oil.  Ours has twice as much.

The recipe counts, but it's not going to be good without really good cinnamon. Really good cinnamon makes a really big difference.  

Learning more about snickerdoodles

• What does "creaming" mean? It means to beat the sugar into the butter. The sugar crystals cut into the butter creating tiny air pockets in the dough. It helps the cookies to rise and makes them softer.
• Are these just regular snickerdoodles? Well, they're traditional snickerdoodles. We tried several recipes, and this is the one we liked best.
• What about the customers? This is a five-star product. Out of 29 reviews, 28 are five-star reviews. The last one seems like she overbaked them. Cookies bake quickly, and ovens vary. Check the first batch before the time is up--the bottoms should be golden, not brown.
• What makes them better? Other than the recipe, I think it's the cinnamon.  We use a good grade of cinnamon with a high cinnamon oil content.
• What type of cinnamon? It's Extra Select Korintje Cassia Cinnamon.
• How many cookies does it make? Each mix makes thirty-six 2 1/2-inch cookies.
• That's a lot of cookies. Can I freeze the extras? You can. You can also freeze the dough.  Make the little rough dough balls and freeze them. When you get ready to bake them, thaw the dough and then roll them through the cinnamon sugar mixture.

You cannot make great snickerdoodles without great cinnamon! The most important ingredient in snickerdoodles is the cinnamon. 

You won't find snickerdoodles made with cinnamon that is this good elsewhere. Grocery stores and volume bakeries are very competitive. They sell on cost. And really good cinnamon is just too expensive. But really good cinnamon makes a magical difference.

 Make them for your family. Your family deserves really good snickerdoodles. They will love the diffeerence.
