I should probably rename my blog to my favorite recipes from Allrecipes.com. Unless they are old recipes that is usually where they came from. I just really like their rating system and most of the recipes that are 4.5 to 5 stars are really fantastic. I always like to read the comments too because they give you some good ideas on how to tweak the recipe for the better. These are another 5 star rated cookie from that site and they are so yummy.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup shortening
1 1/2 cups white sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
2 3/4 cup all purpose flour
2 tsp cream of tartar
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
2 Tbsp white sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400. Cream together butter, shortening, 1 1/2 cups sugar, the eggs, and vanilla. Blend in the flour, cream of tartar, soda, and salt. Shape dough by rounded spoonfuls into balls. Mix the 2 Tbsp sugar and the cinnamon. Roll balls of dough in mixture. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake 8-10 min, or until set but not too hard. Remove immediately from baking sheets.
