This is a cross between a snickerdoodle and something else. That something else is extra stuff; all I know is it's not a traditional snickerdoodle. The cocoa, white chocolate, and the fireball make sure of that. It has some of the basic components of a snickerdoodle like the shortening and the cream of tartar. It's airy, but then you get the dark rich chocolate; your taste buds will be happily confused. I hope you like it.
