Puffy Snickerdoodle Cookies

December 21, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 14 Comments

Hi Everyone,

There are three cookies that I love!  #1 Chocolate Chip Cookies!  Oh yeah chocolate chip cookies, so good!  #2 Peanut Butter Cookies!  I don’t think there is a PB cookie that I have met that I haven’t loved.  #3 Snickerdoodles!  LOVE my snickerdoodles!  They are such a simple cookie, so buttery, perfect sweetness and just plain good!!  So today, first time ever on PB andP, I am sharing with you the Classic Snickerdoodle cookie.
Puffy Snickerdoodle Cookies
I have to tell you I am the queen of puffy cookies! I don’t know what it is, but almost all of my cookies turn out puffy. Not that I find that an issue, but it’s the truth. I don’t know what I do, but puffy they become. I have had this with cookie recipes I have created and ones I have made from cookbooks. Matter in fact, Little Jenny made Mint Chocolate Chip Cookies, and they turned out flat, crunchy and buttery. She offered one to her Dad and he turned it down and said their flat! lol Yes, my Husband wont eat a flat cookie anymore because he is so used to puffs!
Puffy Snickerdoodle Cookies
But my little Puffy Snickerdoodles are the perfect kind of puff. They look like little snowballs and are just perfect for the holidays. These cookies are super easy to make, they are light, airy and have the perfect buttery taste that just melts in your mouth. I am a big fan of Snickerdoodles and honestly I don’t make them enough. Actually the last time I made them was two years ago. That is crazy!!! What is wrong with me? My top 3 cookies and I make them every other year? That has to change and pronto!

Puffy Snickerdoodle Cookies
When I went to make these cookies, I noticed I only had one stick of butter so I had to half my batch. Sigh…. When I went to get my sugar, it was just about gone. It was almost not meant to be, but then I realized I had some Truvia so I used those in my cookies and rolled my cookies in the little amount of granulated sugar that I had left. They turned out great and low-calorie! Only 46 calories a cookie and less than a gram of sugar! Awesome! Wish I made these for me, but I didn’t! I made them to send to my Mom! Hope she likes them!
Puffy Snickerdoodle Cookies
Well my Friends, I have one more cookie post to share and I think (you never know)I am cookied out! I have had and baked so many cookies the past couple of weeks, and I can’t get enough workouts in to make up for cookie belly! Thank goodness January is almost here and that means time to get fit!!!

Well my Friends have a great weekend! I’ll be spending my day finishing or should I say starting my Christmas shopping!

Happy Holidays to you!

Toodles,


Jennifer

    Hi, You sound a lot like me when it comes to the cookies turning out puffy. The reason is the butter. When you refrigerate the dough, the butter sets and does not make the dough soft like true “room temp” butter does. most people throw this on-the-verge-of melted butter in the cookies, but really when you mix it in, it should still be quite cold and then either refrig the dough or the cookies raw on the tray before baking. I read that somewhere, not sure where…but its always worked for me.

    Hi Jennifer.

    Tried your recipe which did come out fluffy but not round balls like yours. What kind of baking sheet do you use?

      Put your cookies on a chilled parchment lined cookie sheet.

      I always bake a test cookie when trying a new recipe to see how they react 🙂

    Do you bake these on a cold baking sheet or room temp?

    So this recipe not only didn’t make 35 cookies worth of batter, unless you have miniature cookies. I fallowed your instructions to the T and they did not turn out fluffy at all. Disappointed.

      I am sorry Ilia, that they did not turn out for you.

    I made these exactly as the recipe is written. Chilled the dough overnight. Chilled the cookie sheets.Baked for 9 minutes, not 10 because they were so thin I didn’t want them to burn. I did get 34 cookies but they did not stay like little balls. They puffed, then flattened. They are good, but not being little fluffy balls, this is just another average snickerdoodle recipe. They taste ok but disappointed that they don’t look like the recipe. Paper thin cookies are not fluffy!

Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is that I love Target. It’s my happy place. I get so excited each season to see all the new things that come out. 
🌿
One thing I always love is there faux vase/pot flowers and plants. They are always so pretty and I want to buy them all. But there a couple of things that stops me. The biggest one is that I have no storage for them. Two, they seemed to have gone up in price. They seemed a little pricy to me. 
🌿
For my arrangement, I used one of my canisters for the bathroom. I used floral foam to stick the stems in and I used the paper towel as a filler because I only had very little bit of moss. If I had more moss and I would probably not use the paper towel. This arrangement cost me $5.99. 
🌿
Tip: If you look at Targets faux foliage stems only, they have a lot that are same of what use in there vases. The one I used was Hearth and Hand and was only $5.99 for a stem. The exact ones they used in there pots.
🌿
Hope you enjoy this as much as I have making it. 
Enjoy your day!

Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep clea Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep cleaning in my kitchen on Monday. I washed the floors, cabinets, counters and decluttered the countertops. It feels so good and everything is so bright and clean. Well….

My husband decided to take vacation days this week, and my kitchen does not look so pretty. He has his 💩 everywhere. So annoying. 
💖
Here’s a little bit of the styling that I did. I will work on the coffee bar this weekend, though I’m running a blank on how to style it. I need some inspiration.

What do you do to get inspiration?

I’m sharing heart shaped cinnamon rolls that I made this weekend. I got the idea to make them from my friend Heidi @eleanorrosehome. She made the most delicious looking cinnamon rolls, that I couldn’t resist to make. So perfect for Valentines Day and sooooo easy! 
❤️
I took a can of Trader Joe’s cinnamon rolls and unraveled them, if that makes sense, and rolled them up like a palmier cookie. So fun! You could add food coloring to the frosting to make it pink and add sprinkles. Super cute! You can follow step by step recipe on Heidi’s Instagram page! 
❤️
Thank you Heidi for sharing the recipe. This was so fun!
❤️
Would you rather get chocolate or flowers for Valentines Day?

I’m sharing with you my corner of my living room. I love how open this space looks. I added greenery to give it a fresh look. I also stuck with mostly natural colors with an exception of some blues to bring my whole living room together.
