Snickerdoodles!

I admit I totally stole this recipe off my coworker's blog (Thanks Jeannie). I'm looking forward to trying it out!

1 cup shortening

1 1/2 cups white sugar

2 eggs

2 3/4 cups sifted all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

2 teaspoons cream of tartar

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons white sugar

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Preheat oven to 400

Mix the shortening and 1 1/2 cups of white sugar until smooth. Stir in the eggs one at a time, blending well after each. Combine the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar and salt; stir into the batter until blended.

Roll the dough into balls the size of small walnuts. Roll in a mixture of the 2 tbsp sugar and 2 tsp cinnamon. Place 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.

Bake for 8-10 minutes or until lightly golden brown, but still soft.

Yum!
