Snickerdoodles

I had great success with this recipe yesterday, so I thought I would share it. :)

1cup shortening/butter/margarine
1 1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
mix all these with a mixer until you can tell the eggs have been well beaten
2 3/4 cups flour
1 tsp soda
1/4 tsp salt
put all these in together, and mix well with mixer
Then roll into 1" diameter balls and roll them in this mixture:
2 tbsp sugar
2 tsp cinnamon

place on a cookie sheet, and cook for 8-10 minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit. You will know when they are done because they will appear slightly cracked on the top. They will puff up, then collapse as they cool.
