Snickerdoodles are the first cookie I ever learned to bake. They’re simple and splendid, sugar cookies that crack ever so slightly with a cinnamon exterior. Almost perfect. I say ‘almost’ here because this weekend we make snickerdoodles and hid Rolo candies inside, which baked up soft and gooey. A crazy delicious interior for one of the finest cookies in the world. Perfect.
