We’ve been baking enthusiasts ever since we were little kids. We love making all kinds of things but if we had to choose one thing to bake for the rest of our lives, it would be cookies. In particular, we just can’t get enough of snickerdoodles! We’ve spent years collecting as many recipes as we can for making unique snickerdoodles of different kinds, just to keep things interesting.
Just in case you love snickerdoodles as much as we do, if not more, here are 15 of the most unique recipes we’ve come across so far in our search.
