We’ve been baking this iconic snickerdoodle cookie since 1950 and we love it just as much today as we did 75 years ago. After decades of baking and testing our classic snickerdoodle cookie recipe, we think we’ve made it even better over time. While our snickerdoodle cookie recipe has largely remained the same, we did make one change that has made a big difference. Our original recipe calls for shortening, and that makes sense. Shortening helps create a thicker, softer, and more pillowy texture, but we love the flavor and crispiness butter brings to the party, so we changed the recipe to include both. Now, our users tell us this is the best snickerdoodle recipe they’ve ever made, and we agree!
