Kerrygold Snickerdoodle Cookies (GF)
What makes these cookies extra unique? I use Kerrygold butter and that makes the cookies so scrumptious.
Ingredients
For Cookies:
- 2¼ cups gluten-free flour like Cup4Cup
- 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup 2 sticks Kerrygold butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 1¼ cups granulated sugar
- ½ cup packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
For Rolling:
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Whisk together flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt in medium bowl.
- In large bowl, whisk melted butter with both sugars until smooth. Let cool 3 minutes.
- Whisk in eggs and vanilla until combined.
- Fold in flour mixture until just combined. Don't overmix.
- Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes until firm enough to handle.
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Mix cinnamon and sugar for rolling in small bowl.
- Scoop dough into ¼ cup portions (about 3 ounces each). Roll into balls.
- Roll each ball in cinnamon-sugar, coating completely.
- Place 6 cookies per sheet, spacing 4 inches apart (they spread a lot).
- Bake for 8 minutes. Remove and lift pan 4-6 inches off counter, then bang down firmly. Cookies will deflate.
- Return to oven for 3 minutes. Remove and bang pan again.
- Repeat baking 3 minutes and banging 2-3 more times (16-18 minutes total) until cookies have rippled edges and golden centers.
- Let cookies cool completely on pan - they'll be very soft until cooled.
Notes
The pan-bang creates signature ripples and crispy-chewy texture
Cookies spread to 4-5 inches wide - don't crowd them
Bang firmly but controlled - you want deflation, not flying cookies
These are intentionally flat, not puffy like traditional snickerdoodles
Best eaten day-of for optimal texture contrast
