Snickerdoodles



Well here we are on the 2nd day in our cookie thon and it's Sunday, know what that means? Snickerdoodles! These are so soft and irresistible!
This recipe can make 3 dozen if you use a small ice cream scooper. These cookies actually spread quite a bit and you will end up with HUGE cookies if you use a regular ice cream scoop.
