Butter Substitute for Soft and Chewy Snickerdoodle:
If you are dairy free, you can substitute the butter for vegetable shortening or a plant-based butter stick. Please do not substitute for margarine, it will not produce good results.
Can I use whole-wheat flour?
Whole wheat flour produces a much denser cookie, and is not recommended. If you want to attempt it anyway, do not substitute more than half of the all-purpose flour for whole wheat.
Cream of Tartar:
Cream of tartar is an acidic byproduct of fermented grapes, commonly found in the spice aisle of your local grocery store. You might be tempted to skip out on this sciencey product, but it really is necessary to give snickerdoodle their trademark chewiness.
