3 cups sugar
4 eggs
2 cups soft shortening. Do not use margarine but you can use butter.

5 1/2 cup flour
4 tsp cream of tartar
2 tsp soda
1 tsp salt
Chill dough
Roll into walnut size balls
Roll into mixture of 2 tablespoon sugar and 2 tsp cinnamon
Bake at 400 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes on an un-greased cookie sheet

Mom's tips:double the sugar cinnamon mix. If you like them chewy start with 8 minutes and adjust accordingly for the bake time. Using parchment paper makes the whole process much easier. Batch can be halved for a smaller amount of cookies.
