Making Christmas snickerdoodles
Storing
STORE cooled cookies in an airtight container for 3-4 days. You can extend that time a few extra days by placing them in the refrigerator. Cream of Tartar: Don’t skip the cream of Tartar. Without this tangy flavor you basically have a sugar cookie. FREEZE. Store in a freezer bag, or air-tight container in the freezer for up to 4 months. When you’re ready to eat or serve them, let them thaw in their container on the counter. They will taste just as yummy the day you made them! FREEZE the dough. Once you have shaped and coated the cookie dough balls with the cinnamon and granulated sugar mixture, line them up on a small baking sheet (one that will fit into your freezer). Place the dough balls in the freezer until they are solid, then transfer to a freezer Ziploc. Freeze for up to 2 months.
