Why I Love This Recipe
I found this website when I searched “Snickerdoodle Cookie Recipes” and a few recipes came up on the website. I picked this exact one because the picture looked the most delicious. I just love Snickerdoodles so that’s why I did this. Chemistry Info: Pure Substances are baking soda (NaHCO3), salt (NaCl), and sugar (C12H22O11). The homogeneous mixtures are flour, ground cinnamon, cream of tartar, and shortening. The heterogeneous mixtures are eggs, finished cookies, and unmixed dough. Physical changes are when the cookies get hot in the oven and when the batter becomes balls of dough. The chemical changes are indicated by the lightly browned bottom and when they puff up.
