The recipe asked for vanilla extract, rushed to the store, didn't pay attention (and didn't even notice when I took this picture) until I poured the "vanilla extract" and it smelled like almond extract....AHHHHH!!!!! How did I not notice the label? All the ingredients were mixed already, so decided to just go with it. Results?? Success!! Yumminess.
1/2 cup butter, softened
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
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons white sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Cream together butter, shortening, 1 1/2 cups sugar, the eggs and the vanilla. Blend in the flour, cream of tartar, soda and salt. Shape dough by rounded spoonfuls into balls.
Mix the 2 tablespoons sugar and the cinnamon. Roll balls of dough in mixture. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.
Bake 8 to 10 minutes, or until set but not too hard. Remove immediately from baking sheets.

Love, love, love snickerdoodles! (So do kids...keep this in mind for your new little niece) I bet they were really good using almond extract instead of vanille. I'll have to try that!
