Servings

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• ¹⁄₄ teaspoon Salt
• ¹⁄₂ cup Unsalted butter, softened
• ¹⁄₂ cup Granulated sugar
• ¹⁄₄ cup Brown sugar
• 1 Egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
• ¹⁄₂ teaspoon Cream of tartar
• 12 Caramel candies, unwrapped

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
