Norwegian Cookies

1 1/3 cup sugar
18 Tbsp. margarine - softened (do not use butter)
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
3 cups flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 cup mini chocolate chips

3 Tbsp. sugar
3/4 tsp. cinnamon

Heat oven to 350.

Beat 1 1/3 cup sugar, margarine, eggs and vanilla in a large mixing bowl.
Stir in flour, baking powder, and chocolate chips.

Divide dough into 4 equal parts. Shape each part on a lightly floured surface into roll, 1 inch diameter and about 15 inches long.

Place rolls on ungreased cookie sheet (I put two rolls per cookie sheet); flatten slightly with fork to about 5/8 inch thickness.

Mix 3 Tbsp sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over dough.
Bake 13 -15 mins., until light brown edges.

WHILE WARM, cut diagonally into about 1 inch strips (I find a pizza cutter works best).
