Ingredients

- 1 cup (227 g) Unsalted Butter
- ½ cup (110 g) Light brown sugar
- ¾ cup (150 g) White sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 2¾ cups (345 g) All-purpose flour
- 1 tsp Baking soda
- 1 tsp Cream of Tartar
- ½ tsp Sea salt
Cinnamon sugar mixture

Instructions
- Preheat the oven at 375°F / 190°C / Gas Mark 5. Prepare a 9 x 9-inch square pan with cooking spray or line with parchment paper.
- Cinnamon sugar mixture - Combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Dry ingredients - In a medium bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment(or hand mixer) on medium speed, cream the unsalted butter with both the white and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Pro tip - The butter must be room temperature, not too soft. And you want the sugar to almost dissolve in the butter.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, followed by the flour mixture. Combine well but do not overmix. Pro tip - We do not want to activate the gluten in our flour. So do not overmix.
- Transfer half the dough to the prepared baking pan. Spread the dough evenly. Sprinkle half the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Then, top with the remaining dough and more cinnamon-sugar mixture.Pro tip - The cookie dough can be kept in the fridge for 2 to 3 days. You can even freeze it for up to 3 months.
- Bake for about 30 minutes. Then, cool in the pan for another 10 minutes.
- When cooled, cut into 16 squares as shown in the video.Pro tip - Transfer to an airtight container. These bars will stay fresh for up to 7 days at room temperature. They can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
