CINNAMON SNAPS

Since I'm a longtime cinnamon fan, I decided to give traditional gingersnaps a different twist. My husband and son agree I spiced them up just right. We live on a ranch overlooking the ocean and also own a machine shop business.

Clipped this out of a magazine and only changed it a little. I cannot remember the magazine. These are like ginger snaps with cinnamon instead of ginger.

A wonderfully spiced soft cookie from Taste of Home. My family loves them and I make them each year for Christmas. I have slightly changed the original recipe to use butter instead of shortening. I also double the recipe usually and freeze unbaked cookie ball for later use.
