Total Time: 18 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 8 mins

Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 1 1/2 cups sugar
• 2 eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla (this is an occasion worthy of good vanilla!)
• 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon

Recipe

• 1 preheat oven to 400 degrees f.
• 2 cream together butter and sugar.
• 3 add in eggs, one at a time, along with vanilla, until well-combined.
• 4 mix dry ingredients (flour, salt, soda, cream of tartar) in a separate bowl. add dry ingredient mix into the wet mix in 2-3 stages.
• 5 mix the 2 tablespoons sugar and the cinnamon together in a small bowl.
• 6 use your hands to roll dough into little (ping-pong ball-sized) balls.
• 7 roll dough-balls in the cinnamon/sugar mixture so they're covered all the way around. place them on an ungreased cookie sheet, 2 or 3 inches apart.
• 8 bake 7 or 8 minutes, until they have spread out and have just started to turn brown. remove from cookie sheets and place cookies on cooling rack to cool and set a little. if they're not completely cooked when they come out of the oven, let them cook a bit more on the cookie sheets, out of the oven. 7-8 minutes will make a nice, chewy cookie with a little crispness on the bottom.
