Preheat oven 350°.
In a medium bowl combine the butter with both sugars and cream together using a hand held {or stand} mixer. Continue mixing until it is light and fluffy. Add the eggs and vanilla extract and mix until incorporated.
Add the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt to the butter and sugar mixture. Mix just until the dry ingredients are incorporated {don't over mix}.
Use a medium cookie scoop and scoop mounds of dough into a bowl with the toppings mixture {of sugar and cinnamon}. Roll the cookie dough ball in the topping mixture until it is coated.
Place the cinnamon sugar coated cookie dough ball onto a silicone {or parchment} lined baking sheet. Bake for 9-11 minutes or until the cookies begin to turn golden brown around the edges {don't over bake}.
Remove the cookies from the oven and then allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before moving them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days or freeze cookies for up to 3 months.
