snickerdoodle

Soft cinnamon treat

A snickerdoodle is a soft, slightly tangy cookie rolled in cinnamon sugar before baking.

The tang comes from cream of tartar in the dough.

The cookie is American, dating to the late 19th century, and remains a holiday and home-baking staple: She made snickerdoodles for the bake sale.
