Skillet Snickerdoodle Cookie Recipes

Steps:

• 1. In a medium bowl, combine flour, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
• 2. In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add eggs and flavoring and mix until smooth. Gradually add dry ingredients to butter mixture and mix until well combined. Chill dough for 30 minutes.
• 3. Preheat oven to 350^. Rub a 12-inch cast iron skillet with a small amount of butter. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of cinnamon sugar mixture over the bottom of the skillet. Place cookie dough in skillet and pat the dough evenly until it completely covers the bottom of the skillet.
• 4. Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon sugar evenly over the cookie dough. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until golden brown. Carefully remove skillet from oven and place on a wire rack. Cool for at least 20 minutes. Slice into wedges and serve.

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Melt the butter in a 10-inch cast iron skillet over medium heat, then set aside to cool slightly, 5 minutes.
• Whisk the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar and salt together in a medium bowl. Vigorously whisk 1 cup of the granulated sugar, brown sugar and egg together in a large bowl. Whisk in the melted butter. (Do not wipe out the skillet.)
• Add the flour mixture and continue whisking until the dough comes together. Let the dough and buttered skillet rest, separately, in a cool place for 30 minutes. (This allows the dough to firm up and the skillet to cool.)
• Mix together the remaining 2 tablespoons granulated sugar and the cinnamon in a large bowl. Shape the dough into a large ball and gently roll it in the sugar mixture until evenly coated.
• Place the dough ball in the center of the prepared skillet. Bake until the sides are browned, the center is still soft, and the surface of the cookie cracks, about 35 minutes, rotating once halfway through. Cool on a wire rack at least 15 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve warm or room temperature. Store in a sealed container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
