Snickerdoodles!

In January I wrote here about trying to perfect my husband's favorite cookie when we were newly married. I had several bloggers ask about the recipe, so here it is! It's a good one!!

Snickerdoodles

Ingredients:

½ C shortening
½ C butter/margarine
1 ½ C sugar
2 eggs
2 ¾ C flour
scant 1 t. cream of tartar
1 t. baking soda
¼- ½ t. salt

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Mix shortening, sugar & eggs thoroughly. Sift remaining ingredients and stir in. Roll into balls the size of small walnuts. Roll in mixture of 6 T. sugar/ 6 t. cinnamon. Place 2” apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. (* You can slightly press them down with the bottom of a glass, but you don't have to. I do. ) Bake 8-10 min or until lightly brown. (They puff at first, then flatten out)

Serving: 5 dozen
