Directions

Heat oven to 350 degrees.

Brown butter on the stovetop and set aside to cool. Measure all other ingredients and set aside. Mix melted butter, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla thoroughly in the mixer using a paddle attachment. If no mixer is available, this can be done by hand in a large mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, mix the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and cinnamon. Carefully add the dry ingredient mixture into the wet ingredient mixture one cup at a time. Mix until all ingredients are well blended. Remove bowl from mixer. Fold Rice Krispies into batter with a wooden spoon or spatula. Scoop out batter with an ice cream scoop onto a baking sheet that is covered with parchment paper. Roll dough balls in cinnamon sugar mixture before baking.

Bake 12-15 minutes in oven.
