Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, cinnamon and salt. Mix well and set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar for 4–5 minutes until light and fluffy. Scrape down the sides, then add the eggs and vanilla and cream for 1–2 minutes more.
  4. Gradually add the flour mixture in two or three parts, mixing until just combined.
  5. In a small bowl, mix the 1/3 cup sugar with the 2 teaspoons cinnamon for the topping.
  6. Scoop out the dough with a small cookie scoop and roll each portion into a ball. Roll each ball in the cinnamon sugar, adding extra on top if desired.
  7. Place the balls 2 inches apart on the prepared trays and bake for 8–10 minutes.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the tray for at least 10 minutes before removing them.
