Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoons sugar (for rolling)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is fluffy and light in color.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined and a dough forms.
  6. In a small bowl, combine the cinnamon and sugar designated for rolling.
  7. Using your hands, roll the dough into 1-inch balls. Coat each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully covered.
  8. Place the rolled dough balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden while the centers remain soft.
  10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For perfectly round cookies, reshape them after rolling in cinnamon-sugar. Keep any leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
