Snickerdoodles

So, while many of our family and friends are getting snowed in (we miss you Chicago); we are called off because of rain.

Okay, fine, there is some ice too, but I would so rather have snow!

In honor of our snow day (or I guess it would be ice day) we made some delicious snickerdoodles. As with most of my cookie recipes, I double it. I then bake one batch of cookies immediately and the other batch I make into balls and freeze them.

That way, when I am low on time but still want some fresh baked cookies I can whip out my freezer bag of dough and pop in some cookies and have hot, fresh treats in 10 minutes! Market Day sells cookie dough in tubs for just this reason, I do it for myself to save money!
