Cinnadoodles

by Barbara on January 7, 2009

I read about Cinnadoodles on Two Peas and Their Pod a few months ago and since Jenny at Picky Palate had been raving about cinnamon chips, I decided I would give them a try. I was never a huge fan of snickerdoodles, but I am hooked on these. In fact, I’ve made three batches of these cookies over the last few weeks. The cinnamon chips just put them over the top!

Be sure and underbake these cookies. They will set up on the cooling rack. Take them out when they are just crisp on the edges.

Cinnadoodles
Adapted from Martha Stewart’s Cookies

2 3/4 cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 large eggs
a bag of cinnamon chips
3 tablespoons sugar
3 teaspoons ground cinnamon

1. Preheat oven to 350F. Sift together flour, baking powder and salt; set aside. Put butter and 1 1/2 cups sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium speed until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Mix in eggs. Reduce speed to low; gradually mix in flour mixture. Add in cinnamon chips.

2. Stir together cinnamon and remaining 3 tablespoons sugar in a small bowl. Shape dough into round balls; roll in cinnamon sugar. Space 3 inches apart on baking sheets lined with parchment paper or a Silpat.

3. Bake cookies, rotating sheets halfway through, until edges are golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Don’t overbake. Let cool on cookie sheet for a minute or two, then transfer to a cooling rack.

I hope to be making more cookies from Martha’s Cookie book this year. When I bought it we talked about making a cookie a week to try them all. I may have to try for a cookie a month. I wonder how long that would take to try them all?

I’ve looked everywhere in my town for the cinnamon chips, but can’t find them. Guess I better get to the big city.

I love cinnamon and these cookies sound soooo good.

I was about to say the same as “HoneyB” looks like she beat me to it! Fine, I’ll indulge tomorrow. Haha. Yes, our two year old devoured it!! So glad too because we have been working hard on broccoli so who knew adding it to tortellini would be the trick?!

I’ve done Superdoodles before from KA Flour, and essentially Martha has the same recipe. LOVE them! Count me in as someone who has made every kind of snickerdoodle I can find… including snickerdoodle ice cream :)

I love cinnamon cookies. I make cripsy cinnamon cookies every year around the holidays but I’ve never made snickerdoodles. I’ll have to keep this in mind next time I’m hit with the urge to bake!
