Snickerdoodles are my all-time favorite cookie. They remind me of my mom because if she ever spontaneously made cookies, it would be these. Probably because they are fairly simple and require minimal ingredients (almost every household should have these ingredients!) Well, I made these sandwiches before for my fiance to take to work, but that was when I wasn't baking gluten free. This time, I decided to make them miniature and also gluten free. Boy let me tell you, they are as soft as fluffy pillows. They just melt in your mouth! Give them a shot, you won't regret it.
