SO GOOD!! My boyfriend and I can not stop eating these. We went through a pan in one night, and the next night he was begging me to make more lol.
Wanted to try and make a TEENY bit healthier, so I subbed 1/2 of the AP flour for oat flour, and subbed 1/2 of the white sugar for coconut sugar but still used brown as well. Turned out amazing! Thank you 🙂
Chahinez
That’s awesome!
Adrianna

This popped up on my explore page and I thought “this must be fate..” lol. I just finished baking them, they are still hot but i’ve been picking at them and the flavor is amazing! Give these a try, you will not be disappointed!

I doubled the recipe and cooked it in a 9×13 pan. They turned out perfectly. I cooked the for about 5 extra minutes. I wouldn’t change a thing.

Thank you Stacey!

Snickerdoodles are a classic and comforting cookie that my family loves so I was really excited to find this recipe for blondie-style snickerdoodle! This recipe is so quick and easy, and the result is so yummy! I did overcook these a tad as I used a loaf pan bc I only have one 8×8 pan and was using that for Chahinez “Lazy Girl Super Easy Tiramisu”, which I also highly recommend! Nonetheless, being slightly overcooked they were still so good, and my daughter, who really prefers a snickerdoodle over anything else decided she got to take any leftovers home.
Chahinez
Snickerdoodle cookies are truly the most comforting little things ever!! I love that the 8×8 inch dish was taken by the tiramisu recipe haha!! Enjoy and don’t forget to share the recipe with your daughter so she can make them anytime too!
Michelle
So delicious. Will definitely make again
Chahinez

If I double the recipe can I use a 9″×13″ pan? Should I change the bake time?
Chahinez
You might have to bake it for just a few extra minutes. Let me know how it turns out!

Hi! What size pan do you recommend using for tripling this recipe? Thanks!

I’ve only doubled this recipe and used a 9×13 inch pan. I am not sure what pan to use if you triple this.

These were delicious! The texture was spot on. Warm out of the oven, they were perfectly chewy on the inside with a crunchy texture on the outside from the cinnamon sugar topping.

These are such a treat right out of the oven!

Easy snickerdoodle bars as the name says, they are so so simple to make, can’t get over it. The batter was quite thick so was a bit unsure but they baked to perfection. Melt in the mouth. Must try. Got some awesome feedback too for my baking 🙂 bit I should give credit to this simple, easy yet extraordinary cinnamon bars . I gonna try again and add chocolate chips this time. Go for it!
