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 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!

I’m still working in my dining room and I wanted to share my new reversible sign that I got from @krumpetshomedecor. It’s a beautiful 24x9 sign that I thought it would be perfect in my dining room.

I love sitting around the table with friends and family and tell stories, laugh, play games and have a good time. I thought the side of the sign that says “Enjoy Every Moment” was perfect.

One of the things I added was my new bedding that I got from @lushdecorhome. Let me tell you, it is so luxurious. This is the 3 piece Belgian Flax Linen Rich Cotton Blend Bedspread. It is so soft and gets softer with each wash. 
💕
I have a tall bed and the ruffles just reaches the floor. The bedding is filled with cotton that gives the bedspread such a comfy feel. The bedspread is perfect for the summer, as it is lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy in the winter. The set comes with two pillow shams and the bedspread. It also comes in 4 colors. 
💕
I love my new bedding, it’s so feminine and simply beautiful. I couldn’t be happier. Swipe the photo to see how happy Sully is on the bedding.

Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime ta Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime tablescape with @JCPenney + #AllAtJCP + #sponsored +#ShoppingIsBack but you know how I love still photos better. I think you can really see the details of the decor.

💛

I am loving how simple, fresh and light my tablescape feels. It’s the perfect look I was going for. When the idea came for creating a tablescape, I was unclear of what direction I was going for until I shopped at JCPenney. I walked around the decor department and was completely inspired. They had so many styles and colors that would inspire you too.

💛

I saved a highlight of my shopping trip to JCPenney. You must check it out. I’ll be honest, I was blown away by the styles, quality and prices of there store. I will be shopping there quite frequently and you know I will take you along my journey.

💛

What is the style of your home?

💛

PS. Everything on my table is from JCPenney and it is the Linden Street Collection.

My inspiration was my new pillows that I got from @downlitebedding. The name of the pillow says it all “Ahhhhhmazing™ down alternative pillow” and they are amazing.
🐾
The pillows are so soft, plush and are hypoallergenic. They are easily molded so you position your neck, head and arms. The pillows are also washable and OEKO-TEX® Certified Textiles Are Certified Free Of Harmful Chemicals. 
🐾
I’ll be honest, Downlite Bedding are the only pillows that I sleep with. They are fabulous and will last for years. I highly recommend them. They won’t disappoint you. Downlite Bedding was nice enough to give my followers a 20% off discount code to there shop: DYGEN20.

Hello! I have to tell you that I love summer. It’s my favorite season. I love the sun, hot weather, shirts and flip flops. I could just spend all day outside.
🌻
One of my favorite things to do in the summer besides gardening is going to the Farmers Market. There is something about the atmosphere with people walking around with bags in hand, the smell of kettle corn and everyone is so happy. 
🌻
Besides the atmosphere, you can’t beat the freshly grown produce. It’s mind blowing how different it tastes, then what you get in the store. You almost forget what a strawberry is suppose to taste like until have it at the Farmers Market. Plus you are supporting your community. It’s a good feeling all around. 
🌻
I highly recommend going to the Farmers Market and pick up so corn. Soooooo good!! Stock up on your fruits and veggies and freeze it for winter.

I’m sharing with you my last photo of my peonies. I’m so sad that they didn’t last. I got about 6 days from them. I guess that’s means I need to go to Trader Joe’s and get more before peony season is over.

Do you have any summer vacation scheduled this year?

Happy Monday!! It’s back to work for me. I’ll Happy Monday!! It’s back to work for me. I’ll be counting down to my next vacation, which will be the week of the 4th of July. I will tell you, it felt so nice not having any plans and doing work in the garden.
🌻
This weekend I finally made it to the Farmers Market and I picked up these amazing sunflowers. They are such a happy flower. 
🌻
When I got them, I couldn’t resist doing a flowers in the sink photo. I haven’t done one of these since Fall. Now I may have to go back to the Farmers Market next weekend because they had so many flowers and most were only $4.00 a bundle. 
🌻
Do you you like to go to the Farmers Market?

Happy Friday! My vacation is officially over and I Happy Friday! My vacation is officially over and I pretty much spent the whole week working in my garden, so I apologize for all the flower photos. 
🌸
This is a view of my fenced in garden. The flowers on the left are zinnias, and next to them is beardtongue and in the background, butterfly bush.  In about a month or so, this background will pop with lots of orange from my Mexican sunflower and yellow from the black eyed susan. I just hope my black eyed susan’s make it. They are struggling. 
🌸
I have to say I have been enjoying working in the garden. It’s therapy to me. It just makes me feel good to sit back and see all your hard work start to bloom. I can’t wait to see what the garden looks like a month.
🌸
What do you like to do that you consider your therapy?
