Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks)
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (plus extra for coating)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter until it turns golden brown and smells nutty. Let it cool slightly.
- In a mixing bowl, combine granulated sugar, brown sugar, and cooled brown butter. Mix well, then add eggs one at a time until fully incorporated.
- In another bowl, whisk together flour, cream of tartar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually mix this into the wet ingredients until just combined.
- Scoop dough onto parchment-lined baking sheets and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes for thicker cookies.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Roll each chilled dough ball in a mixture of cinnamon and sugar before placing them on a lined baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden but centers remain soft.
- Allow cookies to cool on sheets for about five minutes before transferring to wire racks.
