Ingredients
For the Cookies
- 2½ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- ½ cup vegetable shortening
- 1½ cups sugar
- 2 eggs
For the Cinnamon-Sugar Coating
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line 3 baking sheets with silicone baking mats or parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt.
- Using a stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment, beat the butter, shortening, and sugar together on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in eggs, one at a time, until incorporated, about 30 seconds, scraping down bowl as needed.
- Reduce speed to low and slowly add flour mixture until combined, about 30 seconds. Give dough final stir by hand to ensure that no flour pockets remain.
- Combine the sugar and cinnamon for the coating in a small bowl or shallow dish. Working with 2 tablespoons dough at a time (or using a medium cookie scoop), roll into balls, then roll in cinnamon-sugar to coat. Arrange the cookies 8 per sheet and bake the cookies, 1 sheet at a time, until the edges are just set and beginning to brown but the centers are still soft, puffy and cracked (the cookies will look raw between the cracks and seem underdone), 8 to 12 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. The cookies can bet stored in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
