"These wonderful cinnamon-sugar cookies became very popular with my friends at church. My pastor loves them! You will too! Crispy edges, and chewy centers; these cookies are a crowd pleaser for sure!"

1/2 cup shortening
1 1/2 cups white sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons cream of tartar

Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen. Merry Christmas from my home to yours.
