Directions:
Melt the butter. Add the brown sugar and 1 cup of the white sugar and mix. Let the mixture cool to room temperature while you beat the eggs with a fork. Stir in the eggs to the sugar mixture. Add the vanilla, 1 teaspoon of the cinnamon, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt. Mix well. Add flour in increments, mixing after each addition.
Use your hands to roll the dough into walnut-sized balls. If the dough is too sticky, chill for an hour before rolling.
Combine the 1/2 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon in a small bowl.
Roll the dough balls in the mixture, then place them on a greased cookie sheet, 12 to a standard sheet. Flatten the dough balls with a greased or floured spatula.
Bake at 325 degrees for 10 to 15 minutes. They should have a touch of gold around the edges. Cool on the cookie sheet for 2 minutes, then remove the cookies to a rack to finish cooling. |
