Snickerdoodle Cookies

Lately, this is has been a favorite of my boys. . . so we are sharing.

1/2 c. butter

1 c. sugar

1/4 tsp. baking soda

1/4 tsp. cream of tartar

1 egg

1/2 tsp. vanilla

1 1/2 c. flour

2 Tbsp. sugar

1 tsp. ground cinnamon

In a mixing bowl beat butter with electric mixer for 30 seconds. Add 1 c. sugar, baking soda, and cream of tartar. Beat til combined, scraping sides of bowl. Beat in the egg and vanilla until combined. Beat in the flour and chill for one hour.

Combine the 2 Tbsp. sugar and the cinnamon. Shape dough into 1" balls and then roll balls in the sugar-cinnamon mixture to coat. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake in a 375 oven for 10 minutes (don't overbake them). Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool. Enjoy :)
