Ingredients
- 3 cups (420g) all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt fine sea salt
- 2 ticks (227g) butter room temperature, unsalted
- 1 1/2 cups (300g) granulated sugar
- 2 large egg room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Cinnamon sugar coating
- 1/3 cup (67g) granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350f and set rack to the middle level. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicon baking mats.
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, cream of tartar, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt and set aside.
- In a large bowl with a hand mixer, or the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the butter and sugar. Add the eggs and vanilla and mix until combined.
- Combine the dry ingredients with the butter mixture and mix until combined.
- In a small bowl, combine the ingredients for the cinnamon sugar coating.
- Using a medium cookie scoop, scoop the dough out and roll it into a ball. Place the ball into the cinnamon sugar mixture and coat well. Place the dough ball onto the cookie sheet. Repeat for the remaining dough, spacing the balls ~3 inches apart.
- Bake for 9-10 minutes or until the edges turn lightly golden. While the cookies are warm, lightly press the center down with a spoon to slightly flatten the cookies and if desired sprinkle extra cinnamon sugar on top. After 10 minutes of cooling, place the cookies onto a wire rack to completely cool before storing.
