Snickerdoodles are ranked among the well known classic and nostalgic cookies, such as chocolate chip, oatmeal, peanut butter and sugar cookies. They have a soft chewy texture (imparted by the addition of cream of tartar) and a warm, comforting, cinnamon flavor. For me, I would say that snickerdoodles are...

Cowboy cookies are a hearty and delicious adaptation of classic oatmeal cookies where the raisins are swapped for loads of sweet, salty and texturally pleasing mix-ins.
