Amish Sugar Cookies

1 tsp vanilla
Mix separately in large bowl:
4.5 cups flour
1 tsp cream of tartar
1 tsp baking soda

Add dry mixture to wet mixture, beating well.
Chill, if you want to. Or just drop small balls of dough about the size of a nickel into granulated sugar. Roll around and place on a cookie sheet. Just scoop dough onto the cookie sheet.
