Servings: Makes 4 dozen cookies

Comments: Snickerdoodles make a wonderful cookie for holiday gift-giving. Wrap them between layers of wax paper and place them in a pretty holiday tin or if desired, wrap them in cello wrap and tie with colored ribbon. It seems that most people really enjoy Snickerdoodle cookies and giving them as a "homemade" gift from your kitchen is so greatly appreciated.
