Snickerdoodles

Ingredients:

1/2 c butter
1/2 c shortening
1 1/2 c sugar
2 eggs
2 3/4 c flour
2 tsp cream of tartar
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
Cinnamon sugar mixture

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Mix thoroughly butter, shortening, sugar and eggs. Then blend in flour, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt. Shape dough and roll in cinnamon and sugar. Bake 8-10 mins.

Tips:
Butter flavored or regular shortening works.
Sprinkle more cinnamon and sugar on top after they finish baking, while they are still warm.
I only cook mine for 8 mins but it mostly depends on your oven. I like them barely brown on the bottom. They will look doughy when you remove them but once they cool down they will be chewy on the inside and crispy on the outside.
