Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt until combined.

  3. Incorporate eggs, one at a time, and mix well, then add vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually add the flour mixture to wet ingredients while mixing on low speed until just combined.
  5. If the dough is too soft, chill it in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
  6. Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C) and prepare the sugar and spice coating.
  7. Shape dough into balls, roll in the spice coating, and place on a lined baking sheet.
  8. Bake for 10-11 minutes until edges are golden and centers are soft.
  9. Cool on the baking sheet for 5-10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
