My mom used to make these cookies when I was a kid. We lost the recipe and no other snickerdoodles tasted the same. My sister found that she had given a copy of the recipe to a friend's daughter, so now I'm posting it here for safekeeping.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup butter, softened
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
3 eggs
2 3/4 cups flour
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Farenheit.
2. Cream together butter and 1 1/2 cups sugar.
3. Add eggs and vanilla extract.
4. Mix flour, cream of tartar, salt, and baking soda in separate bowl.
5. Blend together wet and dry ingredients until smooth.
6. Mix together cinnamon and the rest of the sugar in a shallow bowl.
7. Roll dough into tablespoon-sized balls, and roll in cinnamon-sugar mixture.
8. Place on greased cookie sheet.
9. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until firm and just starting to brown.
