I love the recipes that are written on the back of a church program, envelope or just a scrap of paper. But sometimes the names get lost and you forget where they came from. I do believe this is from cousin Diane - but I can't be positive and she probably doesn't call them Cinnamon Balls either.
1 cup shortening
1 1/2 cups sugar
+ 2 tbsp for coating
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
2 3/4 cups all purpose flour
2 tsp creme of tartar
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
2 tsp cinnamon
In a large mixing bowl, cream together shortening, sugar, eggs, and vanilla. In a separate bowl, sift flour, cream of tartar, soda, and salt. Slowly add flour mix to creamed mix a little at a time. Mix well.
Break off pieces of batter to form small 1 inch balls. Roll 1 inch balls in cinnamon and sugar mix. Bake in preheated 400 degree oven for 8 - 10 minutes.
