Snickerdoodles

1 c. shortening
1 1/2 c. sugar
2 eggs
Mix and add to:
2 3/4 c. flour
2 tsp. cream of tarter
1 tsp. soda
1/2 tsp. salt

Chill dough at least 1 hour (if you don't, your dough will be sticky and the cookies will be flat).
Roll dough into balls and roll in a mixture of cinnamon and sugar.

Bake at 400 degrees for 8-10 minutes.
**Do not brown the cookies. They will still be gooey when you pull them out of the oven, let them sit on the pan for 1-2 minutes then place on cooling rack. They cook a little more as they cool.
