Instructions
- Brown the butter: In a large skillet on the stovetop, melt butter over medium/low heat. Once melted, increase heat to medium and cook, stirring frequently as the butter begins to pop/bubble and fiz. Stir/swirl frequently, scraping the bottom of the pan until the sizzling slows and you notice lots of brown specks forming.
- Remove from heat and pour into a large heat-proof bowl. Allow to cool completely before proceeding with recipe.
- Make the cookie dough: Preheat oven to 350F (175C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, stir together browned (cooled) butter and sugars until combined.
- Add eggs and vanilla extract and stir well.
- In a separate, medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
- Gradually (in 4 or 5 parts) stir flour mixture into butter mixture until completely combined. The dough will seem stiff, this is normal.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together sugar and cinnamon for rolling.
- Roll cookie dough into 1 ½ Tablespoon-sized balls and roll each ball through cinnamon/sugar mixture, coating evenly. Place cookies on prepared baking sheet, spacing at least 2” (5cm) apart.
- Bake in 350F (175C) oven for 9-11 minutes. The centers of the cookies may appear slightly under-done when removing from oven, this is fine, allow the cookies to cool completely on the baking sheet where they’ll finish cooking through before enjoying.

Notes
- Chilling isn’t required, but for thicker cookies cover the dough and chill for an hour before baking. Chilling for much longer than this will make the dough difficult to scoop.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
