Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (for coating)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for coating)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the ground ginger, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • Cover the dough and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, combine the 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon for the coating.
  • Roll rounded tablespoons of dough into balls, then roll each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  • Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between them.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
