  1. These are yummy! I subbed cane sugar for the brown sugar as I was out. For the nuts I used peanut butter chips instead only because my hubby asked if I could make snickerdoodles but with peanut butter and I obliged. Very smart cooking these at a lower temperature. The texture was soft and chewy as a snickerdoodle shoud be. The cookies are done when the tops start to "crack". Next time I am definitely making these with nuts! A well-deserved 5 stars! cg ;)
     
  2. These are phenomenal! I've always felt like traditional snickerdoodles were missing something. The addition of the nuts (I used pecans) really make these special. I was able to get 3 dozen out of this batch, and, although skeptical about the time/temp, oh my goddess these were perfection! I will definitely be making these a regular in our house!
     
  3. I made my first batch of these last night, and it won't be my last! They have just the right amount of resistance as you begin to bite, then give away into a chewy delight. I used hazelnuts, which are delicious in this recipe. Next time, I will try pecans, which I think will also be a terrific complement to the flavor. I got exactly 20 cookies out of the recipe using my cookie scoop to form the initial ball.
     
  4. These are yummy! The classic cake-y snickerdoodle with a twist! We loved the addition of walnuts! The recipe made 2 dozen cookies for us and the baking temp and timing are perfect! Thanks Tami!
