Snickerdoodle Cookies

An old time, classic cookie~
Snickerdoodle Cookies are
a cookie like no other cookie~

Crisp on the outside,
tender and chewy on the inside.
Forming the dough into balls,
then rolling the balls in a mixture of cinnamon-sugar,
gives the cookies the classic taste and appearance,
we have all come to love.
