Cardamom Snickerdoodles

Day 3 of my 2020 Cookie Week is a festive twist on a classic Snickerdoodle!

I love a classic Snickerdoodle, but when I sat down to brainstorm how I can evolve this Christmastime favorite into something new and updated, all I could think about was cardamom.

I don’t work with cardamom a lot, but it is an ingredient that always peaks my interest this time of year.

If you are new to cardamom, it has a very strong aroma and is almost menthol-like flavor, making it a great addition to holiday baking and wonderful pairing with cinnamon, just like I did here in these Cardamom Snickerdoodles!

Baker tip: These cookies spread (a lot) so after rolling in the sugar coating, be sure to sprinkle a bit more sugar coating on top of the dough balls once they are on the baking sheet. This will allow the cardamom and cinnamon flavor to shine in each bite!
