Snickerdoodles

Here with an update! Charlie (the kitchen aid) and I are like BFF's now. Although, a little birdie from culinary school told me the oven is jealous of her.....let's just say I got a pretty bad burn the other day!!

Anyways, changing the subject, I said to myself the other day: who doesn't love a good snickerdoodle? This is when I began the great search for..........the snickerdoodle!! And dun dun dun duuun, I found it!! Disclaimer: it's only amazing if you love chewy snickerdoodles with crispy edges. =)
