Belle's Snickerdoodle Cookies
FromAt Wick's End
Tim Myers
This is a longtime favorite of my family. These cookies are great right out of the oven, but they're just as tasty right out of the freezer.
Ingredients
2¼ cups sifted all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1 teaspoon baking soda A dash of salt
1 cup butter or margarine, creamed 1½ cups of sugar 2 eggs
3 tablespoons sugar 3 teaspoons cinnamon
Combine the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt. Sift this mixture thoroughly, then set it aside. Cream the butter (or margarine)
until fluffy, then gradually add the sugar and eggs. Stire in the dry ingredients, then chill the dough until it's cool to the touch. This makes it easier to work with. Make balls a little bigger than a quarter,
then roll them in the combined cinnamon/sugar mix. Place them two inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit. The cookies take 8-10 minutes to bake and will be lightly browned on top.
This recipe makes about 4 dozen cookies.
