Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Electric mixer or whisk
  • Spatula
  • Baking sheets
  • Parchment paper or silicone mats

Ingredients

  • 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar for coating
  • 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon for coating

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Gradually add the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
  • Slowly incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. Chill the dough for 15 minutes if needed.
  • Mix the remaining sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Scoop out tablespoon-sized dough portions, roll into balls, and coat in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
