Tasty's Classic Snickerdoodle Cookies

In a large mixing bowl, beat softened butter and 1½ cups granulated sugar on medium speed for 2 minutes until fluffy.

Add eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla extract; beat until smooth.

Whisk flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt together in a separate bowl.

Gradually add dry ingredients to wet mixture on low speed until dough comes together.

In a small bowl, mix ¼ cup granulated sugar and 1 tbsp cinnamon.

Roll dough into 1½-inch balls and roll thoroughly in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.

Place dough balls 2 inches apart on parchment-lined baking sheets.

Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 8 to 10 minutes until puffed and edges are golden. Cool on rack.
