Snickerdoodles

This picture is a little misleading, because I don't roll my snickerdoodles in cinnamon and sugar. But the picture is just so dang priiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitty. I couldn't resist. Yes, I'll post a picture of my own the next time I make these.

Snickerdoodles

Mix together:
3 cups sugar
2 cups shortening

Add:
4 eggs
5 1/2 cups flour
4 tsp. cream of tarter
2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt

And if you're a cinnamon-sugar kind of a person, then roll your balls of dough in that before setting onto your cookie sheet.

Bake at 375 for 8 minutes, no more. Or you'll get rock-hard cookies; trust me.
