Snickerdoodle issues
Why aren't my Snickerdoodles cracking on top??
Here is my recipe:
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup butter flavored shortening
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
2 1/2 cups flour
2 tsp cream of tartar (isn't this what makes it crack?)
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
I cook them at 400 for about 9 minutes, just until they start to crack, then cool them for about 2 minutes on the rack. They are DELICIOUS but aren't cracked on top, which I think makes them look so uniquely Snickerdoodly.
This is what I want them to look like:

Any suggestions?
