For a less cakey cookie, reduce the cream of tartar to 3/4 teaspoon. Add a few drops of almond extract for a delightful twist. Sprinkle with shredded coconut after frosting for added flavor and texture. Store the baked cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. The dough can be made ahead of time and chilled for up to 24 hours before rolling out.
