Cooking : Banny's Southern Cream Cookies

Ingredients
1 cup shortening
2 cups white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup sour cream
5 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 cups chopped black walnuts
3 tablespoons white sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease baking sheets.
Cream the shortening with 2 cups of the white sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, vanilla and sour cream; mixing well.
Stir in the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda into the shortening mixture to make a stiff dough. Add the chopped black walnuts.
Drop teaspoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets. Mix the 3 tablespoons with the ground cinnamon. Grease the bottom of a small glass. Dip it into the cinnamon-sugar mixture and gently press the cookies to flatten the balls of dough slightly.
Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 10 to 15 minutes or until centers are done.
