Ingredients:

  • 1 cup (226g) Unsalted Butter, softened to room temperature
  • 1.5 cups (300g) Granulated White Sugar
  • 2 Large Eggs, room temperature
  • 2 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 2.75 cups (345g) All-Purpose Flour
  • 2 tsp Cream of Tartar
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 0.5 tsp Fine Sea Salt
  • 3 tbsp Granulated White Sugar (for coating)
  • 1 tbsp Ground Cinnamon

Instructions:

  1. In a stand mixer or with a hand mixer, beat the softened butter and 1.5 cups of sugar on medium-high for 3 minutes until the texture is pale and velvety.
  2. Add the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, scraping down the sides of the bowl to ensure a perfect emulsion.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and sea salt.
  4. Turn the mixer to low and gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Mix just until no white streaks remain, being careful not to overmix.
  5. In a small bowl, combine the 3 tablespoons of sugar and 1 tablespoon of cinnamon for the coating.
  6. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough (approximately 1.5 tablespoons each) and roll between your palms until smooth balls form.
  7. Toss each dough ball thoroughly in the cinnamon sugar mixture until heavily coated, then place on prepared baking sheets and bake for 10 minutes.
