Snickerdoodles

This is another of those recipes that is a good, standard one to have. I was introduced to these cookies as an adult. They're good. They're not my favorite, but they're a good one to mix it up once in a while. --Stacy

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups white sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2 eggs
2 3/4 cups flour
1 tsp. cream of tartar
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
2T white sugar
2 tsp. ground cinnamon

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 400° F. Combine 1 1/2 cups white sugar, butter, vanilla, and eggs. Mix well. Stir in flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. Blend well. Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Combine 2 T sugar and 2 tsp. ground cinnamon. Roll dough in sugar/cinnamon mixture and place 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets. Flatted slightly. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until set. Immediately remove from cookie sheets.

Notes:

These are really yummy and a nice break from the usual chocolate chip/oatmeal/peanut butter cookies people usually make. We got this recipe here from allrecipes.com.
