  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flours, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter, sugar, and eggs together using an electric mixer fitted with a whisk or beaters. Slowly add in the flour mixture until it's thoroughly mixed.
  4. Use a 1 or 1 1/2 tablespoon cookie scoop to form balls from the dough. Alternatively, you could roll the dough between your hands to create balls.
  5. Mix together the 3 tablespoons of sugar and the cinnamon in a small bowl and roll each dough ball around until evenly coated. Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet for 10 to 12 minutes.
