DAY 44 (COUNTDOWN TILL CHRISTMAS)

SNICKERDOODLES

1 CUP SHORTENING OR MARGARINE
1 1/2 CUPS SUGAR
2 EGGS
MIX TOGETHER THE ABOVE INGREDIENTS
ADD:
2 3/4 CUPS FLOUR
1 TSP SODA
1 TSP VANILLA
2 TSP CREAM OF TARTAR

MIX TOGETHER. FORM INTO BALLS AND ROLL INTO MIXTURE OF 1/2 CUP SUGAR AND 4 TSP CINNAMON. COOK AT 350 FOR 12 MINUTES. AT CHRISTMAS TIME I LIKE TO ROLL THESE IN THE COLORED RED OR GREEN SUGAR SPRINKLES - JUST USE 1/2 CUP OF COLORED SUGAR WITH THE CINNAMON INSTEAD OF WHITE SUGAR OR MIX 1/2 AND 1/2. IT MAKES THEM PRETTY AND FESTIVE! :D
