Snickerdoodles

Snickerdoodles are my favorite type of cookies.  How can you go wrong with a cookie smothered in cinnamon and sugar?  Enjoy this simple recipe and double the butter if you don't have food guilt and want a better-tasting cookie.

1 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 large eggs
2 3/4 cups flour
2 tsp cream of tartar
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
3 Tbsp sugar
3 tsp cinnamon

1. Mix butter, 1 1/2 cups sugar, and eggs thoroughly in a large bowl.
2. Combine flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl.
3. Blend dry ingredients into butter mixture.
4. Chill dough, and chill an ungreased cookie sheet for 10-15 minutes in refrigerator.
5. Meanwhile, mix 3 tablespoons sugar and 3 teaspoons cinnamon in a small bowl.
6. Scoop 1 inch globs of dough in the sugar mixture.
7. Coat by gently rolling balls of dough in the sugar mixture.
8. Place on chilled, ungreased cookie sheet, and bake for 10 minutes or until slightly browned on the edges.
