2 Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Mix sugar and cinnamon in small bowl. Roll balls in cinnamon-sugar mixture. Place about 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
3 Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until set. Remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack.

EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

French vanilla cake mix is a great stand-in for the white cake mix.

For Super Snickerdoodles, shape dough into 1 1/2-inch balls and place them 3 inches apart on the cookie sheet; bake 12 to 14 minutes. You’ll get about 26 large cookies.

This sweet little cookie with the whimsical name originated in 19th-century New England and has become an American classic. In this recipe, cake mix provides convenience to the traditional version, but the method of rolling the dough in sugar and cinnamon before baking has been kept.

These cookies came out beautifully, just exactly like the picture, but the taste was another story. Like many here, I found them not only to be too sweet, but the cake mix really really came through and tasted very strange. My husband liked them but I was not a fan, and we ended up throwing out half the batch. I used the plain white Betty Crocker cake mix. Maybe it would be better with another type of mix?
