INGREDIENTS

  • Butter and Sugars

    • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
    • ½ cup white sugar
    • ¼ cup firmly packed brown sugar

  • Wet Ingredients

    • 🥚 1 large egg, at room temperature
    • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

  • Dry Ingredients

    • 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
    • ½ teaspoon cream of tartar
    • ½ teaspoon baking soda
    • ½ teaspoon salt
    • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
    • ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg

  • Topping

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line an 8x8-inch square pan with parchment paper, ensuring overhang on all sides.

2

Cream together softened butter, 1/2 cup white sugar, and brown sugar in a bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Mix in egg and vanilla until thoroughly combined.

3

Add flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, salt, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, and nutmeg to the wet mixture. Mix until a dough just begins to form.

4

Place the dough in the prepared pan. Press dough firmly and evenly into the bottom with lightly floured hands.

5

Mix together 1 tablespoon white sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle evenly over the dough.

6

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 23 minutes, or until the center feels barely set. Avoid overbaking.

7

Cool the cookies in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice into 16 bars.
