- Yields:
-
96 cookies
- Serves:
- 32
ingredients
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups light brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 4 1⁄2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
directions
- Combine and mix the butter, baking soda, cardamom, and salt.
- Slowly add and mix in the brown sugar.
- Beat in the eggs.
- Combine the flour and cream of tartar and mix in slowly.
- Chill dough for 3-4 hours, or until it is firm enough to work with.
- Make 1/2-inch balls of dough and place on an ungreased cookie sheet. Press each cookie with a fork to create a criss-cross pattern.
- Bake for 10-11 minutes. Be careful not to over-cook. Cookies should still "deflate" a little when poked; they will firm up as they cool.
- Cool on a wire rack and store in an air-tight container.
- They are best when served while they're still a little bit warm.
