Ingredients

The following ingredients have 13 Servings
  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 1 + 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 2 + 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 + 1/2 teaspoons cream of tartar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Instruction

  • In a stand mixer with the paddle attachment on medium speed (or a large mixing bowl with a hand mixer), cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  • Add in eggs and vanilla and mix until combined.
  • Add flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt, and mix until just combined. Cover the bowl with plastic cling wrap and chill for 20-30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 F.  Line 2 large half sheet baking pans with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • In a small mixing bowl, combine sugar and cinnamon and stir until incorporated.
  • Scoop out about 2 tablespoons of cookie dough and roll into a ball (about 1-inch thick). Roll each cookie ball into the cinnamon-sugar to coat it completely.
  • Place the cookie balls on the lined baking sheets, spacing them about 2 -3 inches apart. You will have to bake the cookies in multiple batches.
  • Bake for 9-11 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then carefully transfer to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
