Directions:
In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter, oil, and sugars until combined.

Beat in eggs and vanilla.

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and cream of tartar.

In two additions, add flour mixture to the butter mixture, beating until just combined. Do not overmix. Dough will be kinda fluffy and light!

Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Drop dough by rounded teaspoonfuls onto baking sheets.

Bake at 375 for 8-11 minutes, or until edges and bottoms are lightly browned.

Remove to wire racks to cool.

Personal Notes:
These are good for at least a week, but best within the first 3-4 days. After a few days, they get crumbly and a bit on the drier side - still a delicious cookie though.

These freeze really well!
