Notes: The cream of tartar in these sugar cookies makes them soft and chewy, unlike Aunt Ruby's Sugar Cookies which are crisp. Be sure not to over bake these cookies.They should still look a little pale and puffy when you take them out of the oven. Let them cool on the sheet a minute so they firm up and don't break when they are moved to a wire rack to cool completely.
