Ingredients

Scale

1 cup salted butter (softened)
1 and 1/3 cups granulated sugar
1/3 cup brown sugar (packed)
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 and 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 and 1/2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1/3 cup granulated sugar (for rolling)
1 and 1/2 tablespoons cinnamon

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer, beat softened butter until smooth.
Add granulated sugar and brown sugar; mix until fluffy.
Incorporate eggs and vanilla extract until well blended.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, kosher salt, and cream of tartar.
Gradually mix dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
Shape dough into balls about 1.5 to 2 inches wide.
Roll each ball in a mixture of granulated sugar and cinnamon before placing them on the baking sheets.
Bake for approximately 9-11 minutes until edges are set; they should be slightly underbaked in the center.
Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
