Mmmmm Yummy….. Soft Snickerdoodles!!

Today the sky is gray and cloudy and the sun plays peek-a-boo from time to time.  Well, while Mr. Sunshine refuses to stay out, I thought I will bake up something tasty to bring some sunshine to the taste buds.

The house smelled so good while these tasty soft yummy snickerdoodles rolled in cinnamon sugary goodness baked in the oven.  We love snickerdoodles and my children are going to be happy campers when they come home to see the cake (goodie) dish filled with these yummy buttery and simple cookies.
