- Yields:
-
16 muffins
ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 eggs
- 3⁄4 teaspoon baking soda
- 3⁄4 teaspoon baking powder
- 3⁄4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 3⁄4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1⁄2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 1⁄4 cups sour cream
- 2 1⁄4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2⁄3 cup additional sugar
- 2 tablespoons additional ground cinnamon (mix additional sugar and cinnamon together for rolling)
directions
- Preheat oven for 350 degrees. Cream the butter and sugar until soft about 3 minutes. Add in the vanilla, and then the eggs one at a time and mix until each is incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cream of tartar, nutmeg and cinnamon. Add the flour mixture and the sour cream alternately to the egg-butter mixture, scraping the bowl occasionally.
- Using an ice cream scoop, scoop out muffin batter one at a time and drop into a shallow bowl filled with the cinnamon sugar mixture. Roll the “ball” of batter around in the mixture until it is covered completely in cinnamon sugar, and then place into a prepared (either greased or with liner) muffin tin. (Each ball of batter should fill about 3/4 of a muffin tin.) Depending on the size of your tins, you should get about 14 to 18 muffins. Bake them for approximately 20-22 minutes or until they are golden brown.

These are terrific! Buttery and full of cinnamon flavor just like the cookie they are named after. I have made these twice now with a couple other muffin varieties and these have been the first to go both times. The kids at school absolutely loved them, even the kids who had never heard of a snickerdoodle. Thanks for a great recipe, it is well worth the effort.
