Snickerdoodle Cupcakes & Cookies

December 26, 2011

I am not sure what all of your new years resolutions are, but I hope they don’t involve cutting out sweets because I have so many delicious sweet recipes to post in the next couple of weeks! If you are taking the bold step and trying to cut out sweets, I will have plenty of healthier recipes coming up too, so you are safe but I would still encourage you to try to the sweets!

Snickerdoodle CupcakesThis semester I promised my photography professor that I would bake him something and I was told by his roommate that he loved snickerdoodles. So, natually, I wanted to make him something a little bit more unique than just your average cookie; I decided to go with a snickerdoodle cupcake instead! The little cookies were great when dipped through the frosting and the cupcakes were so addicting! I wish I could have posted this recipe before Christmas, but there is still time to make these for New Years! Click on this Stuffed Cookie Dough Cupcake post for the frosting recipe.
