Sugar Drop Cookies
(From the Joy of Cooking cookbook)

1 cup sugar
3/4 vegetable oil
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon

granulated sugar, for rolling

Preheat the oven to 375F.  (I would suggest using parchment paper lined cookie sheets as the sugar can caramelize the cookies to the sheet, making them difficult to remove.)

In a medium sized bowl, combine the sugar and oil;  mix well.

Add the vanilla and then the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.

Add the dry ingredients all at once and beat until well mixed.

Shape dough in 1-inch balls and roll into granulated sugar.

Place the balls on a baking sheet about 1 inch apart. Bake 10-12 minutes. Don't over bake as the cookies will not be brown when they are done.

Makes 4-5 dozen cookies.
