Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°degrees.

Line baking sheets with Silpats or parchment paper.

Whisk together flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt; set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, combine butter, shortening, and 1 1/2 cups sugar. Beat on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add eggs and beat to combine. Add dry ingredients and beat to combine. Stir in cinnamon chips.

Make Cinnamon Sugar: In a small bowl mix the orange sugar and the ground cinnamon.

Use a small scoop to form balls of the dough. Roll in cinnamon sugar. Place about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.

Bake until the cookies are set in center and begin to crack (they will not brown), about 10 - 12 minutes. Transfer the sheets to a wire rack to cool about 5 minutes before transferring the cookies to a wire rack to cool.

Store in an airtight container up to 1 week.
