This recipe requires eggs, mayonnaise, white vinegar, yellow mustard, salt and pepper and smoked paprika.

You can substitute the cheese or hot sauce for a more preferred option.
13. Snickerdoodles

The elements for these are all-purpose flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, unsalted butter, granulated sugar, eggs and vanilla extract and the best part, the topping, requires more cinnamon and granulated sugar.
