I love snickerdoodle cookies!

They're a sugar cookie, of sorts . . . and known for their lightly crisp cinnamon and sugar shell. Yum!

They are soft and moist . . . and CHEWY!! The perfect choice to pair with flavored hot drinks and bold ice creams!

And so I give you . . . Snickerdoodle Pie!

It's HEAVENLY about 10 minutes right out of the oven, as the melted brown sugar and cinnamon are bubbling and oozing out from under the cookie pie . . . like a melted toffee syrup. Dreamy!

After it cools, it takes on more of a snickerdoodle cookie texture . . . BUT with ALOT more cinnamon goodness.

I like to serve it WARM with a generous scoop of pumpkin ice cream.

And there you have it . . . Fall on a plate!

Here's what you'll need . . .

pie crust

for the Cookie Pie Base

2 tbsp. cinnamon sugar, divided

2 tbsp. melted butter

1/4 cup butter

1/2 cup sugar

1/4 cup powdered sugar

1 egg

1 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. cream of tartar

1/2 cup milk

1 1/2 cups flour

1 tsp. vanilla

for the Cinnamon Sugar Syrup

1/4 cup butter, softened

1/2 cup brown sugar

3 tbsp. water

1/4 tsp. cinnamon

2 tbsp. corn syrup

1 tsp. vanilla

Preparation pictorial . . .

If using a store bought pie dough, be sure and read the directions regarding thawing time.

Form pie dough in a pie dish.

I love ruffles, so I chose to make a scalloped edge on the dough.

Brush melted butter over pie crust and sprinkle with 1 tbsp. of cinnamon sugar.

Beat together 1/4 cup butter, sugar, powdered sugar, baking powder, salt, cream of tartar, egg, milk, flour, and 1 tsp. vanilla. Spread evenly in the pie crust.

In a saucepan over medium heat, combine 1/4 c. butter, brown sugar, water, cinnamon, corn syrup, and 1 tsp. vanilla. Gently boil for 2 minutes. Carefully pour over batter in pie crust and sprinkle with remaining cinnamon sugar.
