Snickerdoodles

Lyda Jones Burnette, our Test Kitchen director, borrows this recipe from one of her favorite spice stores—Penzeys.

“I like to use the bottom of a glass to flatten Snickerdoodle dough balls slightly before baking for a crackled appearance. Or bake dough balls without flattening for a ‘snowball’ look.”
