Ingredients:

Start by preheating your oven to 375°F. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and 1 1/2 cups of sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the butter mixture until just combined.
In a small bowl, combine the remaining 3 tablespoons of sugar with the cinnamon. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls, then roll each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Place the cookies 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet.
Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes, or until they're lightly golden brown and set around the edges. Allow them to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
