Ingredients
Cookies:
-1 ½ cups white sugar
-1 cup softened butter
-2 eggs
-2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
-2 teaspoons cream of tartar
-1 teaspoon baking soda
-¼ teaspoon salt
Coating:
-2 tablespoons white sugar
-2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Directions
Step 1:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease.
Step 2:
Beat 1 1/2 cups white sugar, butter, and eggs together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Combine flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl; stir into creamed butter mixture until dough holds together.
Step 3:
Mix 2 tablespoons white sugar and cinnamon together in a bowl.
Step 4:
Form dough into 2-teaspoon-size balls and roll in the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Place dough balls, about 2 inches apart, on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 5:
Bake in the preheated oven on the center rack for 7 minutes. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
