Dietary considerations
Snickerdoodles contain gluten and dairy, and are not suitable for people with celiac disease or lactose intolerance. They are also high in sugar and should be enjoyed as a treat.
Variations
Snickerdoodles can be made with different types of flour, such as whole wheat flour or almond flour, to make them healthier. Some recipes also call for adding nuts or dried fruit to the cookie dough. However, it is important to not stray too far from the traditional recipe, as this can result in a cookie that is too dry or too sweet.
Presentation and garnishing
Snickerdoodles can be presented on a platter or in a decorative box. They can be garnished with a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar on top of the cookie.
Tips & Tricks
When making snickerdoodles, it is important to use room temperature butter and to cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. It is also important to not overmix the dough, as this can result in tough cookies. Finally, it is important to let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Side-dishes
Snickerdoodles are typically served as a dessert on their own, but can also be paired with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for a more indulgent treat.
Drink pairings
Snickerdoodles pair well with milk, coffee, or tea.
