Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.75 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cups unsweetened Ovaltine powder
- 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
- 1 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 cups unsalted butter, softened
- 1.5 cups granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.25 cups granulated sugar (for rolling)
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon (for rolling)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, Ovaltine powder, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a stand mixer or hand mixer to cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and beat until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a dough forms. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon for rolling.
Scoop tablespoons of cookie dough and roll each portion into a ball. Roll each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until evenly coated.
Place the coated dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are just set and the centers still look slightly underbaked. Do not overbake.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Enjoy!
