Ingredients needed

The recipe uses simple pantry staples. Here’s what you need: 

• Heavy cream. Forms the base of the cookie dough. I like to bring the cream to room temperature as it is so much easier to whip.
• Cream cheese. Thickens the cookie dough and balances out the sweet flavors.
• Confectioners sugar. Also known as powdered sugar. It thins out the mixture and ads sweetness.
• Snickerdoodle cookies. Either homemade or store-bought cookies work. Crush them well so that they fold into the mixture seamlessly.  
• Cinnamon. A must have spice when anything snickerdoodle is involved.  
• Vanilla extract.  

How to make Snickerdoodle cookie dough? 

The cookie dough is so delicious, yet so easy to make. Follow the simple 3 step process below: 

1. Whip the cream. Beat the cream in a mixing bowl until stiff peaks form. 
2. Mix all the ingredients. In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese with confectioner sugar until combined. Fold through the whipped cream, followed by the snickerdoodle cookies, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. 
3. Refrigerate. Put the dough in the refrigerator to firm up for at least an hour. 

Tips to make the best recipe

• Don’t overmix everything. The cookie dough needs to be relatively thick before chilling.
• Use room temperature ingredients. Cream and cream cheese mix so much better when they aren’t chilled.
• Roughly crush the cookies. You want the cookie dough to have some texture to it.
