Wonderful flavor and simple recipe. Hubby enjoyed them because they reminded him of his Gramma!

I made a half batch of these cookies to test taste the other day because I wasn't sure if they would be good or not. They definitely were good. I then made a full batch today for my friends house tomorrow and as I was taking the last pan out of the oven I realized that I missed putting in the 1/2 teaspoon of salt. I tasted one and it made no difference from what I could tell. I also used in place of 1 cup of shortening 2 sticks of no salt butter. So basically there's no salt at all in these cookies and they still came out good.

Great recipe, I did change a few things, I doubled the baking soda and didn't use the cream of tartar, personally I don't like the flavor of it. I put the sugar and cinnamon in a plastic baggy to help roll the cookie balls easier, I did also put about a tablespoon more of sugar to help balance the amount of cinnamon. I only left the cookies in the oven for 8 minutes exactly, took them out immediately and placed on a rack, they will look undercooked but they're not.

Delicious! I substituted butter for the shortening and added a tsp of vanilla as suggested by other reviews. Good stuff...

Excellent cookie! I used 1/2 shortening and half butter. I think that may be why they spread more than I had remembered. Taste was great though! I decreased sugar by 1/4 cup. These have always been a favorite cookie in my house! :) Method I used was dark cookie sheet that I forgot to spray, but they didn't stick; I baked at 365 for 8 1/2 minutes. In reply to comment about vanilla, they don't need it because they have a cinnamon flavor! :)
