Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the eggs one at a time, blending thoroughly after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt.
- Combine the wet and dry mixtures gently until no dry flour remains.
- Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Mix the sugar and cinnamon together for coating.
- Shape dough into one-inch balls and roll them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
- Place the balls on the baking sheets, spaced about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 9-11 minutes or until edges are golden and centers are slightly underdone.
- Cool on the baking sheets for 2-3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes
Use softened, unsalted butter for best results. Don't skip chilling the dough for optimal texture.
