Preparation

Step 1

Sift flour, baking soda and salt into a bowl.

Step 2

With a mixer, beat together shortening and butter. Add the 1 1/2 cups sugar and continue beating until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each one. Add the flour mixture and blend until smooth.

Step 3

Mix the remaining sugar with the cinnamon in a small bowl. Roll the dough into 1 1/2in balls. Roll the balls in the sugar mixture. Flatten the balls into 1/2in disks and space them evenly on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake until light brown, about 12 minutes. Cool about 5 minutes on a wire rack.
