Instructions

1 In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon; set aside until
needed.
2 Cut the butter in tablespoons and place them in a heavy saucepan over medium
heat. Once the butter has melted, reduce the heat to low and continue cooking,
until the solids sink to the bottom of the pan and turn golden brown, about 10
minutes. Remove from heat, pour browned butter into a small bowl, cover, and
refrigerate until solidified, about 2 hours.
3 Preheat oven to 375°F (129°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper
and set them aside.
4 In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a large
bowl using a hand-held electric mixer, beat the butter on medium speed until
completely smooth, about 1 minute. Add in both sugars and continue beating until
light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add in the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla and
beat smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.
5 In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, cream of tartar,
baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the
dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until the dry ingredients
are incorporated. Beat in the chocolate chips. Be sure not to over mix the
dough!
6 Using an ice cream scoop, melon baller, or measuring spoon, scoop out one and a
half sized tablespoons of dough from the bowl and roll it into a ball. Roll the
dough in the cinnamon sugar topping, then transfer the ball onto a prepared
baking sheet. Repeat with all cookie dough.
7 Bake cookies, one tray at a time, for 9-10 minutes, or until they're set at the
edges but still soft in the center. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet
placed on top of a wire rack for 10 minutes before serving warm, or transferring
to a wire rack to cool completely.
