I am a huge fan of snickerdoodles and these ones are pretty amazing.  I made these for my manager for her birthday.  She loves snickerdoodles a little more then I do and she was amazed when she tasted these.  She said she wasn't going to share any of the cookies and just hoard them in her room until they were gone.  These cookies have more cinnamon in them then any other recipe I have seen and I am obsessed with cinnamon.  They are perfectly soft and fluffy, and will just melt in your mouth.  I like that the recipe only makes 20 too.   Try these, you will not be disappointed!
