Whisk together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.4 cups freshly milled soft white wheat flour,1 1/2 teaspoons cream of tartar,1 teaspoon baking soda,1 teaspoon salt.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.1 cup butter,1 1/4 cups granulated white sugar,6 tablespoons packed brown sugar.
Beat in the eggs one at a time until fully incorporated. Mix in the vanilla and sour cream.2 large eggs,2 teaspoons vanilla extract,2 tablespoons sour cream.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed just until combined. Do not over mix.
In a small bowl, stir together the granulated sugar and cinnamon for rolling.1/3 cup granulated sugar,2 tablespoons ground cinnamon.
Scoop about 1 1/2 tablespoons of dough and roll into balls. Roll each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until completely coated.
Place the dough balls 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
Bake for 8 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are puffed and crackled. The centers should still look slightly underbaked.
Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. The cookies will continue to set as they cool.
Notes
Don't overbake- Pull the cookies from the oven when the edges are set but the centers still look slightly underbaked. They'll continue baking on the hot pan as they cool, giving you soft, fluffy centers.
