Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 Tbs vanilla extract
  • 2 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp cream of tartar
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Coating Sugar

  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 Tbs cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • In a large mixing bowl (I use my stand mixer) cream the butter and the sugar.  Add the eggs and vanilla and beat until the batter is smooth.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt.
  • Add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture 1/2 cup at a time, stirring in between each addition.
  • Make your dusting sugar by combining 1/4 cup sugar and 1 Tbs cinnamon in a small bowl.
  • Spoon out bits of dough and roll into golf ball-sized balls. Roll each ball in the cinnamon/sugar mixture.
  • Bake in a 350°F oven for about 15 minutes.  Cool each cookie on a cooling rack.  Enjoy with milk or tea.
  • Makes about 2 dozen.
