These Praline Snickerdoodles are absolutely divine. Bits of pecan add a soft crunch, and Heath pieces add an entirely different kind of crunch.

Plan ahead when you make these. The dough needs at least a couple hours to chill. I love to make the dough a day in advance so I can start baking at will.

I wish I could say how long these will keep, but my husband takes these to work and the cookies just… vanish.

These snickerdoodles are even more awesome than the usual variety thanks to the addition of pecans and toffee! Plan ahead to make these, as the dough needs to chill for at least a couple hours. A tablespoon scoop yields about 40 cookies.
