Snickerdoodle Mix in a Jar

By 1982

Another 'cookie mix in a jar' recipe for the collection. Great as a gift, also a fun project to make several of these recipes in a weekend for your pantry!

Ingredients

• 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
• 1 1/2 cups white sugar

Preparation

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, baking soda, cream of tartar, and sugar. Stir with a whisk, then place into a one quart canning jar.

Attach a tag with the following recipe to the jar:

Preheat oven to 350°F.

In a large bowl, cream 1 cup of butter and 2 eggs. Pour in the snickerdoodle mix, and stir until a dough forms.

In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup of sugar and 1 tablespoon of cinnamon. Roll the dough into 1 inch balls, roll the balls in the cinnamon-sugar mixture, and place 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.

Bake for 10 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven. Cookies should be light brown. Cool on wire racks.
