1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 cup Blue Bonnet® Regular Stick margarine, (1 stick)

2 eggs
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 3/4 teaspoons cream of tartar

Heat oven to 400F. Grease cookie sheets. In small bowl, combine 1/2 cup sugar and cinnamon; set aside.

In large bowl, beat Blue Bonnet and shortening with electric mixer until creamy. Add 1-1/3 cups sugar; beat well. Add eggs; beat well. Add combined flour, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt; beat well.
