SNICKERDOODLES

1 cup butter
1 ½ cups sugar
2 large eggs
2 ¾ cups flour
2 tsp. cream of tartar
1 tsp. baking soda
¼ tsp. salt
3 Tbsp. sugar
1 Tbsp. cinnamon

Preheat oven to 350°.

Mix butter, 1½ cups sugar and eggs thoroughly in a large bowl.

Combine flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl.

Blend dry ingredients into butter mixture.

Chill dough, and chill an ungreased cookie sheet for about 10-15 minutes in the fridge.***

Meanwhile, mix 3 Tbsp. sugar and 1 Tbsp. cinnamon in a small bowl.

Scoop 1-inch balls of dough into the sugar/cinnamon mixture. Coat by gently rolling balls in the mixture.

Place on chilled ungreased cookie sheet, and bake for 10 minutes.Remove from pan after 1 minute.

***I chilled 2 cookie sheets. One would always be in the fridge chilling while the other was baking. Make sure dough stays chilled as well.
