Foodie Friday: Cinnamon Creams

0 Comments

One of my best child hood memories was sitting around my grandmother's table, playing crazy 8s and nibbling on my favorite cookies, Cinnamon Creams. Like a cross between a sponge cake and a snickerdoodle. The cookies should soft and spongy in texture and are they are the ultimate cookie jar cookie. The sour cream is wonderful for both flavor and the moisture it imparts but it can have a negative effect if left in an airtight container for more than a day or two. 

I joke about the cookies being low fat because the fat comes from Sour cream.... and that's not so bad. However, there is a fair amount of sugar. But it IS the holidays so who's counting? This is a family recipe and therefor open to a little bit of interpretation. Meaning, you might have to do a bit of trial and error to get it to come out right. But I have every confidence that you will think it's worth is.
