How to Make Snickerdoodles

Step-by-Step

Gradually stir into creamed mixture
Cream shortening, softened butter and sugar.
Add eggs and beat well
Sift together flour, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt
Chill dough at this point.
I form the balls with a slightly rounded measuring teaspoon because I prefer nibbble size cookies. 1/2 tablespoon makes medium size cookies...your choice
Roll each ball in a mixture of 2 Tablespoons of sugar and 2 teaspoons of cinnamon. Again I do this to my own preference cuz I love cinnamon. I also place this is a plastic bag and roll 8-10 at a time.
I bake my cookies on parchment paper - saves clean up. I cool the cookies on the cookie sheet on a rack.
Bake at 375 for about 10 minutes. They will be soft when you remove them but will crisp up quickly.
My result with the bite size is I end up with 9 dozen cookies....the more to share!
