1.25 cups margarine
•

2 large eggs

Instructions

Stir flour, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl. Beat sugar and margarine together with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth.
Beat first egg into mixture. Beat second egg into mixture along with vanilla extract; add flour mixture and stir until dough is just combined.
Wrap dough in plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Roll dough into walnut-sized balls; roll in 1/4 cup of sugar.
