SKINNY HOMEMADE SNICKERDOODLES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, beat butter with an electric mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add the 1 cup sugar, the baking powder, nutmeg, and baking soda; beat until combined. Beat in sour cream, egg product, and vanilla until combined. Beat in as much of the flour as you can with the mixer. Using a wooden spoon, stir in any remaining flour. Cover and chill for 1 to 2 hours or until dough is easy to handle.
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly coat cookie sheets with nonstick cooking spray; set aside. In a small bowl, combine the 2 tablespoons sugar and, if desired, the cocoa powder. Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Roll balls in the sugar or sugar-cocoa mixture to coat. Place balls 2 inches apart on prepared cookie sheets.
• Bake for 10 to 11 minutes or until edges are golden brown. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6, and line a baking tray with baking parchment. Beat the butter and both sugars in a large bowl using an electric whisk for 2 mins until smooth and fluffy.
• Add the vanilla and beat until combined, scraping down the sides once. Add the flour, cream of tartar, bicarbonate of soda and ¼ tsp salt, and mix until just combined. Stir in the milk to loosen the mixture.
• For the topping, combine the sugar and cinnamon in a shallow bowl. Roll 40g of the dough into a ball. Roll the dough ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture, then place it on the prepared tray and press it down lightly. Repeat with the remaining dough and topping, spacing the balls about 5cm apart.
• Bake for 10-12 mins until golden and puffed up. Leave to cool on the tray for 5 mins, then transfer to a wire rack and leave to cool completely. Will keep in an airtight tin for up to four days.
