Equipment

  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Baking sheets
  • Parchment paper
  • Cooling rack
  • Small bowl for cinnamon-sugar coating

Ingredients

  • For the Cookies:
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For the Cinnamon-Sugar Coating:
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • Instructions
  • Prepare the Oven and Baking Sheets:
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F 175°C. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Mix Dry Ingredients:
  • In a medium mixing bowl whisk together the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt. Set aside.
  • Cream Butter and Sugars:
  • In a large mixing bowl using an electric mixer or hand mixer, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Add Egg and Vanilla:
  • Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
  • Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • Prepare Cinnamon-Sugar Coating:
  • In a small bowl mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon.
  • Shape and Coat the Dough:
  • Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Roll each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully coated.
  • Bake the Cookies:
  • Place the coated dough balls on the prepared baking sheets spacing them about 2 inches apart. Gently press each ball down slightly to flatten. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  • Cool the Cookies:
  • Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
