Snickerdoodles

So, this Easter weekend was so fun, but ugh, it kept me so so so busy. So I will post some of my Easter stuff tomorrow, cause I'm off to the zoo, but here is a fun recipe to tie you over. I made these for my mom the other day cause it's her recipe, and they are one her absolute favorite cookies. I feel like snickerdoodles are a really classic american favorite, but if you get a good recipe it makes them that much better. This recipe is kind of full proof. Unless you get your measurements wrong, there is really no way to botch this recipe. It is really simple, but is super delicious.
