Accomplishment #8: Yummy Yummy Super-Soft Snickerdoodles

I love 'em.

Here's how to make 'em:

Snickerdoodles
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup Imperial margarine (I never figured out how to bake with butter) . . . .
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla (I like to use a combination of strong Mexican vanilla and regular 'ol grocery store vanilla)
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Cream the cup-and-a-half of sugar and margarine, then beat in the egg and vanilla. Add the flour, salt, baking soda, and cream of tartar, and mix well. (If you have a Bosch, the dough hook works well for this).

In a separate bowl, combine the half-cup sugar and cinnamon.

Shape the cookie dough into balls, and roll each ball in the cinnamon & sugar mixture. Place the dough on a greased cookie sheet, and bake at 375 degrees for 8 - 10 minutes (9 is perfect, if you ask me).

Yummy yummy super-soft snickerdoodles!
