Snickerdoodle cookie bars

Snickerdoodle Cookie Bars:

1 cup butter or shortening (shortening, though evil, gives a better texture than butter)

1 1/2 cups sugar

3 eggs
1/4 cup sour cream

2 cups flour

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp cream of tartar

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

1/3 cup sugar

1 Tbsp cinnamon

Cream the sugar and butter. Add the eggs one at a time, scraping the bowl between eggs. Add the sour cream. Combine the flour, soda, cream of tartar, powder and salt and mix into the sugar mixture. Combine the other sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Grease a 9X13 pan and coat the bottom and an inch up the sides with half the cinnamon mixture. Spread the dough in the pan and then cover with the remaining cinnamon and sugar. Bake for 25-30 minutes at 350 degrees or until done (the center will not be doughy, but will still be moist). If it turns out like cake, your oven is hotter than mine and you should decrease the baking time.
