Bake a Batch of Hawkeye-Inspired Snickerdoodle Cookies

Grills would be proud!

It’s true that the best gifts come with a bow, and Marvel Studios’ Hawkeye is proof of that. Tis’ the season for holiday decor, trick arrows, and cookies! 

In Episode 4, "Partners, Am I Right?" Clint Barton and Kate Bishop are on the move and on the hunt for their lost trick arrows but they’re going to need some help. It’s LARP-ers to the rescue (isn’t it always?), and Grills, Wendy, Missy, and Orville agree to assist in exchange for materials for new costuming. Just like that, it seems a partnership, within a partnership, has formed.

The real focus here is the fresh snickerdoodles Grills is baking in his apartment. What a whirlwind of a day, LARPing, crime-fighting, cookie baking — it’s all understandably a bit much for Clint — but just think of those cinnamon sugar sweets, and what a great reward they’ll be after finding those dangerous projectiles, bro!

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Prep baking sheets with parchment.

Step 2: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3: In the bowl of an electric mixer, mix the butter and sugar until just combined.

Step 4: Stir in the eggs and vanilla.

Step 5: Slowly add in the flour mixture until just combined. Refrigerate dough for 30 minutes.

Step 6: Scoop 2 tablespoons of dough, and roll into a ball.

Step 7: In a small bowl stir together the sugar and cinnamon. Roll the ball into the mixture and place onto the prepped baking sheets, flattening slightly. Continue with the rest of the dough.
