Brown Sugar Snickerdoodles Recipes

BROWN SUGAR SNICKERDOODLES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Grease the baking sheets or line with parchment paper.
• Beat the butter, shortening, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla in a large bowl with an electric mixer at medium speed until well blended.
• Combine the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.
• Beat the flour mixture into the shortening mixture at low speed until combined.
• Shape the dough into 1" balls.
• Mix 1/4 cup granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
• Roll the balls in the sugar/cinnamon mixture.
• Place 2" apart on the prepared baking sheets.
• Bake 6 to 7 minutes or until the cookies are puffed and cracked on top and the edges are set. The centres will be soft.
• Allow to cool 1 minute on the baking sheets.
• Remove to a cooling rack.

BROWN BUTTER SNICKERDOODLES WITH WHITE CHOCOLATE

Steps:

• Melt butter for cookies in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring often, until the milk solids turn golden brown and the butter smells nutty, 10 to 12 minutes. Pour butter and any browned bits into a small bowl.
• Place in the refrigerator until butter resolidifies but is still soft, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Remove brown butter from the refrigerator and place in a large mixing bowl. Add cream cheese and beat with an electric mixer until fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add white and brown sugars; beat until combined and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes more. Mix in egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract at medium speed until incorporated.
• Whisk flour, cream of tartar, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt together in a separate bowl. Gradually add flour mixture to the butter mixture, beating until just combined, and adding chocolate in with the last bit of flour.
• Whisk sugar and cinnamon for coating together in a shallow dish.
• Scoop cookie dough into 1 1/2- to 2-tablespoon portions and roll each into a ball. Roll each ball in the coating and arrange 3 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until set, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

CARDAMOM-BROWN SUGAR SNICKERDOODLES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, sift together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, 1 teaspoon of the cardamom, and salt.
• Combine the butter and brown sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed for 1 minute. Turn the speed to high and beat until very light and fluffy, 2 or 3 minutes, stopping a couple of times to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. Decrease the speed to medium and beat in the eggs, one at a time, and the vanilla.
• Turn off the mixer. Add about one-third of the dry ingredients to the mixer bowl, and beat on low speed until fully incorporated. Repeat two more times, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed, until the dry ingredients are incorporated.
• Transfer the dough to the refrigerator and chill for about an hour, until firm.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the granulated sugar and remaining 1/2 teaspoon of cardamom. Use a #100 disher (a 3/4-tablespoon scoop) or a tablespoon to scoop small balls of dough a few at a time into the sugar-cardamom mixture, then roll the pieces to coat them and lightly roll them into balls between your palms, pressing the sugar mixture into the dough.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F with the oven rack in the middle of the oven. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Set as many of the cookies as you intend to bake about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 5 minutes, then rotate the baking sheet front to back. Continue baking for another 4 to 6 minutes, until the tops of the cookies are crackled and the edges are just barely browned. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
• Set the remaining dough close together but without touching on a baking sheet and freeze until firm, at least 1 hour. Remove the baking sheet from the freezer and put the cookies in a freezer-safe heavy-duty resealable plastic bag, rolling out the excess air before you seal it. Return to the freezer and store for up to 3 months. Bake the frozen cookies for 14 to 16 minutes, until the tops of the cookies are crackled and the edges are just barely browned.

BROWN BUTTER SNICKERDOODLES SUBMITTED BY LYNNE HOWARD RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Whisk together the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, and salt in a bowl and set aside.
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. The butter will begin to foam. Make sure you whisk consistently during this process. After a couple of minutes, the butter will begin to brown on the bottom of the saucepan; continue to whisk and remove from heat as soon as the butter begins to brown and give off a nutty aroma.
• Immediately transfer the butter to a bowl to prevent burning. Set aside to cool for a few minutes.
• With an electric mixer, mix the butter and sugars until thoroughly blended.
• Beat in the egg, yolk, vanilla, and yogurt until combined.
• Add the dry ingredients slowly and beat on low-speed just until combined.
• Chill your dough for 3 hours or as long as possible in the refrigerator (important!).
• NOTE: You can place it in the freezer for 30 minutes if you are super eager, although I cannot promise the same results if you do this. Fridge is always best! You want the dough VERY cold. If you desire a 'puffy' cookie, place them in the fridge overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Once dough is chilled measure about 2 tablespoons of dough and roll into a ball.
• Meanwhile mix the rolling mixture in a bowl.
• Roll balls in cinnamon-sugar mixture. Place dough balls on cookie sheet, 2 inches (5 cm) apart.
• Bake the cookies 8-11 minutes or until the edges of the cookies begin to turn golden brown. They will look a bit underdone in the middle, but will continue to cook once out of the oven. Bake longer if you like crispier cookies.
• Cool the cookies on the sheets at least 2 minutes. Remove the cooled cookies from the baking sheets after a few minutes and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Repeat with remaining dough.
• Enjoy!
