A great anytime cookie.
Ingredients
By Measure
2 Sticks Softened Butter1 1/2 Cups Sugar
2 Eggs
2 3/4 Cups Bread Flour or All-Purpose Flour
2 teaspoons Cream of Tartar
1 teaspoon Baking Soda
1/4 teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon Nutmeg
3 Tablespoons Sugar
3 Tablespoons Cinnamon
Preparation
- In a mixing bowl cream the butter and 1 1/2 cups sugar together
- Add the eggs and mix until combined
- Stir together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, salt, 1 teaspoon cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg then add to the bowl and mix until well combined
- Mix together the 3 tablespoons each of sugar and cinnamon
- Scoop your cookies and roll into the cinnamon sugar
- Bake at 400 degrees for 11 minutes or until lightly golden
NOTES:
You can substitute the juice from 1/2 a lemon if you do not have cream of tartar.
This is a good basic sugar cookie recipe if you omit the cinnamon and nutmeg and just roll in plain sugar and bake.
Try adding a little vanilla or orange zest or maybe some almond extract or some toasted, chopped pecans for a little different flavor.
