Instructions

  1. In a medium-sized saucepan, add 1 cup unsalted butter and melt over medium heat. Continue to whisk the butter once melted. It will start to foam at the top and you will see the color of the butter change to brown. This process only takes about 5 minutes and the turn happens quickly. Remove the pan from the heat and allow the browned butter to cool for a few minutes.
  2. In a medium bowl combine 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 2 teaspoons cream of tartar, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Whisk together and set aside.
  3. Using a hand mixer, beat together 1 ¼ cups packed dark brown sugar, and ½ cup granulated sugar. Slowly add the brown butter and mix to combine.
  4. Add 1 large egg, 1 egg yolk,1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 tablespoon plain Greek yogurt. Mix on low until incorporated. Slowly add in flour mixture and mix on low until combined.
  5. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill for at least 1 hour. Once ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly spray with cooking spray. Set aside.
  6. Combine ¼ cup granulated sugar and 2 teaspoons cinnamon in a small bowl.
  7. Scoop the dough into 2-inch balls and roll each ball in the cinnamon/sugar mixture. Place the cookies 2 inches apart on the prepared pan.
  8. Bake for 8-11 minutes or until the edges are lightly brown. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool. Enjoy!
