these are delicious! I’ve never been a snickerdoodle fan, but I made these for a coworker and of course had to try one- I think I am now a browned butter snickerdoodle fan! As always- the recipie was very easy to follow and produced perfect cookies! thank you Sam!

These sound delicious! I’m baking ahead of time for an upcoming bake sale. Can I freeze these cookies?

I made these for the first time in March and they were a huge hit. I’m making them again for my husband’s fishing trip. This cookie holds up well in the warmer weather. The browned butter is so tasty and no creaming with the sugars! Yay!!

This is a very forgiving recipe! I ran out of all-purpose flour and had to sub approximately 1/3 with bread flour. I was also in a rush and the browned butter barely got to room temp before I mixed it in with the sugars. The cookies turned out fabulous. I didn’t chill the dough at all and the cookies kept their shape and thickness.(Maybe something to do with the bread flour?) I will definitely make these again.

In reply to alex. Hi Alex! You don't need to wait until it starts to solidify. You just don't want the bowl to be warm to the touch. :)

As far as cooling the browned butter, should it still be liquid when it’s adequately cooled? Or will it be back to a solid state when it’s ready to use? I’m not sure if I should wait until it has solidified again…

In reply to Sam Merritt. I will! And I should have given you five stars when I made my first comment, because anybody who uses browned butter in a recipe deserves five stars!

In reply to Tammie. Hi Tammie! I have not personally tried it, but I would think a 1:1 gluten free flour substitute could work. Let me know how they turn out if you do try it. :)

This recipe looks amazing! I will definitely try it as is (Snickerdoodles and browned butter are two of my favorite things), but I was wondering if your recipe will work with gluten-free flour. Have you tried it? We have some family members who have to eat GF and I’m always on the lookout for ways to include them in wonderful recipes.

I consider myself a snickerdoodle connoisseur as they have been my favorite since I was a kid. I can honestly say these are the best I’ve ever made. They are right up there with Mrs. Field’s snickerdoodles for me. The texture is perfect and they stay soft for days. Another great recipe Sam!

In reply to Kiersten. Hi Kiersten! I would probably roll the dough balls in advance. I suspect they won't spread quite as much in the oven. I would do a test tray and if they don't spread in the oven I would flatten them before baking. :)

In reply to Sam. could you make this dough the day before and refrigerate? We tried them a few weeks ago and loved them I'd like to make them for a work event and wondered if you could make the dough then refrigerate and pull it out the next day to bake
