This recipe makes chewy and delicious snickerdoodle cookies that kids love. One girl told me that she usually didn't like snickerdoodle cookies, but she loved these. I may not know how to make dinner, but boy am I good at cookies. My husband teases me because I always have supplies on hand to make 10 different kinds of cookies but when it comes to making dinner I always have to run to the store for ingredients. Or we eat cold cereal and pancakes. Which I'm fine with. And we had last night.
Snickerdoodles:
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 eggs
2 3/4 cups flour
1 tsp. cream of tartar
1 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
Heat oven to 400 degrees. Cream shortening, butter, sugar and eggs thoroughly. Stir in dry ingredients. Roll dough into balls the size of small walnuts (or use a cookie scoop, which is what I do). Roll in mixture of 2 Tablespoons sugar and 2 teaspoons cinnamon. Place on parchment paper lined cookie sheet. Bake 8 to 10 minutes. (These cookies puff up at first, then flatten out.)
Hope you enjoy them!
