Answer 2

Yes you can, but the cookies will have a different texture and color. They will be a little harder/crunchier, taste a bit more like a butter cookie, and be yellower in color. Just use your regular Snickerdoodle recipe and substitute the shortening with all butter. It's a matter of preference. Some people prefer snickerdoodles with a more buttery taste. Some people like the softer texture the shortening gives it. I have made Snickerdoodles many times with both all butter, a mixture of both butter and shortening, and all shortening.

Answer 3

1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup brown sugar (I used light brown)
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
Topping
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon

In a large bowl, cream butter and sugars at high speed.
Add egg, vanilla, and beat until smooth.
In another bowl, combine flour, salt, baking soda, and cream of tartar.
Pour dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mix well.
Preheat oven to 300° while you let dough rest 30-60 minutes in fridge.
In a small bowl combine topping.
Take about 2 1/2 tablespoons of dough and roll it into a ball.
Roll this dough in the cinnamon/sugar mixture and press onto greased cookie sheet.
Bake cookies 10-12 minutes, NO MORE.
*Cookies may seem undercooked but will develop.
Don't roll your dough into too big of a ball; they may not turn out in that much time if you do that.
It happened to me.
