SNICKERDOODLES
1 cup soft shortening (part butter)1 ½ cup sugar
2 eggs
2 ¾ cup flour
2 tsp. cream of tartar
1 tsp. soda
¼ tsp. salt
Heat oven to 400. Mix shortening, sugar and eggs thoroughly. Blend all dry ingredients; stir in.
Roll into balls the size of small walnuts. Roll in mixture of 2 tablespoons sugar and 2 teaspoons cinnamon. Place 2” apart on ungreased baking sheet. Bake 8 to 10 minutes. (These cookies puff up at first, then flatten out.) Makes about 5 dozen 2” cookies.
Double the recipe and put half the dough in a quart-size freezer bag. When things get crazy during the holidays or your kids pull an "Oh-by-the-way-I-need-cookies-for-school-tomorrow!" you will be all set!
