Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1.5 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp cream of tartar
  • 0.5 tsp baking soda
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 0.75 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cup brown sugar packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 0.5 cup granulated sugar for rolling
  • 2 tbsp cinnamon for rolling

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a small bowl, mix together the sugar and cinnamon for rolling later.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well, then stir in the vanilla.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture until combined. The dough will be soft and a little sticky.
  • Scoop out the dough using a cookie scoop, roll into balls, and then roll each ball in the cinnamon sugar mixture.
  • Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet, spaced about 2 inches apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes until the edges are just lightly golden.
  • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your warm, chewy cookies!

Notes

These cookies are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven, but they're also delightful a day or two later!
