Snickerdoodles

1 C. Shortening
2 1/2 C. Flour
1 1/2 C. Sugar
2 Eggs
1 tsp. Baking soda
2 tsp. Cream of tartar
1/2 tsp. salt

Cream shortening, sugar and eggs. Mix in dry ingredients. Roll in balls and dip in sugar mixture of 2 T. Sugar and 2 tsp. cinnamon. Bake at 325 for 7-10 min.
TIP: I always fork them down like peanut butter cookies, they seem to cook better in the middle.
