Snickerdoodles

What a fun cookie and a favorite of mine growing up. I've seen lots of variations of recipes, but a true Snickerdoodle has "cream of tarter."

• 1/2 cup shortening
• 1 stick unsalted butter
• 2 eggs
• 2 3/4 flour
• 2 teaspoons cream of tarter
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

• 4 tablespoons sugar
• 4 teaspoons cinnamon

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees
2. Cream together shortening, butter and eggs
3. Sift together the flour, cream of tarter, baking soda and salt
4. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients in three batches mixing with electric mixer between each addition
5. Combine sugar and cinnamon
6. Roll dough into one inch balls and roll to cover in cinnamon/sugar mixture
7. Bake for 8-10 minutes
