Lani's Snickerdoodles

 Cream Together
½ cup butter – no substitutions
½ cup butter flavored shortening
1 ½ cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla
 
Add & Mix
2 eggs
 
Add & Mix again
2 ¾ cups flour
2 tsp cream of tartar
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
 
 
Roll into balls or use a cookie scoop.  Roll the balls in a mixture of 2 Tbsp sugar and 2 tsp cinnamon.
Bake at 350 degrees for 8 – 10 minutes.  I personally never bake them longer than 8 minutes.  If you have bigger dough balls then cook for 9 minutes.
