Cinnamon Sugar Butter Balls image

This is my sister-in-law's favorite recipe for snickerdoodles. They are so buttery and the aroma will leave you positively heady! They taste just like french toast and some of us in our clan have been known to eat these for breakfast...they happen to pair naturally with coffee!! *Original recipe from Mrs. Field's Cookie Book.*
