Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 2 minutes).
Beat in the eggs one at a time until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk together flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt; gradually add to the wet mixture until smooth.
In a small bowl, combine sugar and cinnamon for coating.
Roll dough into ½ inch balls; coat each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture before placing on prepared sheets about two inches apart.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until lightly golden but soft in the center.
Allow cookies to cool for five minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack.
