If you've read my blog or just skimmed through, you'll have noticed a couple of things. I love snickerdoodle and s'mores "flavored" desserts. Well, on Monday I click over to see what Cristine had posted on her blog, Cooking with Cristine and what do I see but my family's favorite, Snickerdoodle Blondies. I immediately read on to see if she enjoyed them as much as I do. She does! Here's what she wrote...."They are divine, amazing, fantastic, drool-worthy, delicious.... well, you get the point!" Yay, I don't know about you guys but I always worry about posting how fantastic I think something is only to later find out that everyone else who tried it hated it!
Getting back to the cake. There I am happily leaving Cristine a comment when I noticed that Julia had also left her a comment. I stop a moment to read what Julia wrote and what do my eyes see? Julia has written about a Snickerdoodle Cake she has just made! Whaaaaa?! Since when? And how come she didn't tell me, her most faithful snickerdoodle follower? I hurriedly finished up my comment and hopped over to see what this was all about. Yup, there it was Snickerdoodle Bundt Cake. ( I should state that Peabody has a Snickerdoodle Cake which I have made before and is excellent but these two cakes are poles apart.) Well, I didn't need to read further than the title or even see the photos to know I was making this cake. As a matter of fact I was making it that very day. It didn't matter that I had already committed myself to baking an entirely different cake I WAS eating Snickerdoodle Bundt Cake!
I sincerely wish that I 
The wonderful aroma my oven was putting out was so intoxicating that as soon as I tipped the cake out of the pan and took some photos we each dug into a warm piece. Joe ate his piece under some vanilla ice cream and the rest of us except for Devon enjoyed our piece with a glass of milk! Oh, and the crust, oh man, I could have easily taken the crust off the whole thing and eaten just it! Forget Snickerdoodle Blondies, make Snickerdoodle Bundt Cake instead!
I followed the recipe but made one tiny change, for part of the swirl and topping I added cinnamon chips (in the above photo the "hole" is where there was some cinnamon chips) I added them to a quarter of the cake. Next time I'm adding a heavy layer of them and toasted nuts to both the swirl and the top which is the bottom once it is flipped out of the pan.
Julia the consensus is that Snickerdoodle Bundt Cake is our new favorite with the Snickerdoodle Blondies a close second!

I promise, from this point forward if I make anything else that's been snickerdoodled, I will write to you before I post it.
I am THRILLED to learn that you and your family loved this cake and I'm beyond humbled by your gushing. I think I'm actually blushing, as I write this!!
Ingrid -- you are a precious gift! I just adore you!!
All I had to do was look at that first picture and now I know I will have to make this cake!
I thought this bundt cake looked fabulous on Julia's blog, too! I just adore the smell that fills your kitchen when baking anything Snickerdoodle. Your bundt turned out fabulously, and your description has me wanting a slice--heck, the whole cake--right this instant.
Yay for yours and Julia's fabulous blogs!!
That Bundt Cake looks really good! I bet it tastes awesome!
Cheers,
Rosa
"Forget Snickerdoodle Blondies, make Snickerdoodle Bundt Cake instead!"
Okay! You don't have to twist my arm :-)
This looks so SO good!
Ingrid, have you ever had cinnamon toast? I have a recipe on my blog. It's more like a method , than a recipe, but I bet your kids would love it! We do!
Awesome review Ingrid, I met Julia through you when she posted this. It is Indeed lovely. I have this on my list to make also. I will soon! Looks awesome!
That looks luverly. I am obsessed with bundt cakes!
I love the bundt and the snickerdoodle! I have to make this!!! Thanks for sharing. Yours looks fantastic!!!
This is going on my list of things to bake SOON!!! Thanks..it looks wonderful!
Looks delicious... and it's kinda funny, the other day I rediscovered my bundt pan, and was like "what am I going to make in this?"
Now I know.
I saw this cake on Dozen Flours and thought of you BUT also thought for sure you had the recipe! :) I loved your close ups of the cake...it really made it look delicious! Great post...I'll have to see if I even own a Bundt pan! ha
Mmm! I just saw this over at Dozen Flours, and I am SOOOOO going to make it later. Slurp, slurp. Is it wrong that I dream about vanilla ice cream on top of warm-freshly-baked EVERYTHINGS, including this?
Your snickerdoodle bundt looks moist and delicious! Your cakes always look so mouthwatering, Ingrid!
I dug my bundt pan out in while sorting through stuff to prepare for moving the other day. This is one I'm definitely planning to try! Thanks for the inspiration!
Snickerdoodle is such a yummy flavor. I love your idea of cinnamon chips and toasty nuts! It looks so scrumptious!
Oh no, another snickerdoodle recipe to try, or should I say Oh yes??? The scale will say oh no:) Ha! I can't wait to try this one!
That looks so good! Yum! I saw you got a dot.com now! Congrats!
This looks so good! I've never had snickerdoodle anything. I guess this will have to be my first snickerdoodle recipe I try!
Ooooh, snickerdoodle cake. What a great idea! I love anything that involves cinnamon and sugar.
Now THAT is a rich, hearty, mouthwatering, droolworthy...well I am outta words but you know what I mean...seriously...fantastic :)
Love that sugary crust!
Awwww, you know this is exactly my kind of cake. Do the cinnamon chips make a big difference? Might have to order some from King Arthur. I haven't been able to find any here.
I love your enthusiasm for all things snickerdoodle! This looks like a wonderful cake! (I'll bet it'd be to-die-for with a scoop of cinnamon ice cream!)
I only have 9 more days left! I'd say that, up until about a month ago, the time went really quickly. Once "the end" was in sight, I became so anxious to see Kyle again that the time started to creep by! I feel like a kid waiting for summer break!
Oh yum!!!!!!! I will be making this ASAP and I even have some cinnamon chips! Your cake looks amazing!
Ingrid, I was going to try the Snickerdoodle blondies this weekend, but now that I see this cake, and having way too many bundt pans that need USE, I think I'm taking this route! YUM!!
BTW, less than two weeks to baseball season! FINALLY! :)
:O My eyes almost fell out of my head when I saw this cake! Wow, snickerdoodle, in cake form! Must.Bake.Bundt!!!!

The next bundt cake I try will be a snickerdoodle one. I was thinking about the blondies, but since you think this is better than I'll have to give it a try.
All of your recent cakes look beautiful!
saw this and thought of you...
http://www.ourbestbites.com/2009/03/snickerdoodle-ice-cream.html
This is -such- a great idea! I'm dying to find an excuse to try it myself.
Okay, so this sounds like something I wouldn't want to share with anybody.
omg, if I live at your house, they would need a crane to get me to my doctors appointments. Everything always looks so delicious.
Oh have you ever seen this blog? I bet you would like it. Parsley, Sage, Desserts and Line Drives. http://lisamichele.wordpress.com/2009/03/27/lasagnalasagne-i-did-it-myyy-wayyy/#comment-735
Ohhh, see now snickerdoodle blondies are still on my list of things to make, but I guess I am going to have to put this one right above it because it looks sooooo good! And man I love cinnamon chips so I'm going to have to add lots of those too. This is moving to the top of my list (and you should see how long my list is! haha)
even without the inclusion of the fabulous and unbeatable spice known as cinnamon, the crumb on this cake is outrageously amazing! i share your love for all things snickerdoodly, ingrid--this is fantastic!
Speaking of S'mores...in the newest People magazine there is an article on Guy Fieri and his kid friendly recipes and he has a S'more Egg Roll recipe that I have got to try. Check it out since you like S'mores desserts. Let me know what you think....http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/guy-fieri/smore-eggroll-recipe/index.html
That cake looks amazing! I definitely see this one in my future.
This looks SO good! I love snickerdoodles too! I'm definitely going to have to try this one out! Thanks for the comment and the great post!
Oh Man! HUGE snickerdoodle fan here too. Have you tried Snickerdoodle ice cream yet?? I have printed this one out to try for sure!!
OMG this looks to die for!
Ohhh la la - snickerdoodle bundt - I collect snickerdoodle recipes, and am DEF going to make this soon.
That looks devilishly good!
A cake that surpassed your expectations? I've really got to try this one!
Liking all your posts about snickerdoodles. The crust really does remind me of the cookies...
This looks heavenly! My son is a huge fan of snickerdoodles and would love this. I have to check out the blondies as well.
Okay Miss Igrid- I just got finished inhaling this cake. AWESOME! I'm at my parent's house and my Dad just said, "Okay, I'm pretty sure this is my new favorite cake" lol. It was amazing, thanks for sharing the recipe!
I recently made a Bundt cake for the very first time. I loved it! (I probably won't get it blogged till later on in the week). I'll add this to my bookmarked Bundt cake recipes as one to try. It looks VERY delicious!
Now this sounds heavenly!!! What a terrific post...you've sold me on this recipe...it's bookmarked. Your bundt looks fantastic...I especially love that beautiful cinnamon sugar crust.
That crust looks AMAZING. I am a bundt cake fiend but have never tried one like this. I am SO doing so now!
This recipe looks amazing I just got my first bundt pan for christmas and it should definitely be broken in with a snickerdoodle cake! YUM!
