Snicker Doodles Anyone!


Living in California definitely had it's benefits, one of those was Jimmy V's ( the sports cafe' on campus). Their menu was fabulous...smoothies, burgers(mr. pig), the fresh fruit, and of course you cannot forget the yummy snicker doodles made daily. These cookies were a favorite amongst the camp councilor's and were a daily purchase, along with a cup of coffee bigger than one of the counselors head. Since then I have forever been trying to find a recipe that will match those delectable, warm buttery, cinnamon discs. Although I have not found the perfect recipe I have found others that are close. My most recent discovery comes from a Foodie Blog called The Noble Pig ( which I peruse daily). This particular recipe interestingly enough calls for Cheerios and at first I debated making these because this particular cookie is supposed to be chewy and soft...not crisp and crunchy. With the weather outside reaching as high as 100 degrees, I decided to give it a try with help from the kids. They were not as interested in the finished product as much as they were in the pre-baked cookie dough. HMMM! So of course I ended up eating most of them.
