Snickerdoodles with Brown Sugar
1/2 cup soft butter
1/2 cup white sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 3/8 cup flour (165 g)
1 tsp. cream of tartar
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
Preheat oven to 375.
Mix butter, sugar and eggs. Sift together flour, cream of tartar, soda and salt. Mix with creamed ingredients. (I usually skip the sifting step and just dump the dry ingredients in with the wet ones). Chill dough. Roll into balls the size of small walnuts and roll in a mixture of 1 tsp cinnamon and 2 tablespoons sugar.
Place 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake until very light brown, but still soft. They will puff up, then flatten out and crinkle on top.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Makes about two dozen.
