Rebecca's Snickerdoodles

I think we have a couple of snickerdoodle recipes on here, although I am too lazy to actually check.  But we don't have this exact recipe on here and it's a good one so there you have it.

I am an assistant den leader in cub scouts and I work with one of my favorite friends, Kamarah.  She introduced me to this recipe at one of our activities.  It's quick and easy and makes just the right amount of cookies.

1/2 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/4 tsp. cream of tartar
1/4 tsp. baking soda
2 Tbs. sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon

*Beat butter for 30 seconds on high.  Add half of the flour, the 1 cup sugar, the egg, vanilla, baking soda and cream of tartar.  Mix well and then add the remaining flour.  (It says to cover and chill for one hour but we didn't do that).  Shape dough into 1 inch balls.  Combine the 2 Tbs. sugar and the cinnamon.  Roll dough balls in sugar/cinnamon mixture.  Place on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 10 minutes at 375 until edges are golden.
