  • Total Time: 18 minutes

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 C Butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 C Sugar
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 tsp Vanilla
  • 1 tsp Cream of Tarter
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 2 1/2 C Flour

Cinnamon Sugar Topping

  • 3 Tbsp Sugar
  • 2 tsp Cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Pre-heat oven to 350°F
  2. In a medium bowl sift together flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt and set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl combine softened butter and sugar and mix until creamy.
  4. Add eggs, vanilla, mix until just combined.
  5. Add half the flour mixture and mix until combined.
  6. Add the other half of the flour mixture, dough will be thick, sometimes I find mixing it with my hands works better.  Dough shouldn’t be too sticky.
  7. Create the topping mixture by mixing the sugar and cinnamon together with a fork.
  8. Roll the dough into balls and put each dough ball into the cinnamon mixture and coat it evenly on all sides.
  9. Place on a greased cookie sheet two inches apart.  Repeat for the remaining dough.
  10. Cook at 350°F for 8 minutes.
  11. Remove from oven and ENJOY!
  12. I make small cookies, about a tablespoons worth of dough.  Form them
