Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two sheet pans with parchment.
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in the vanilla extract and egg until fully incorporated.
In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar and salt. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Stir in the cornflakes.
Drop the dough by the scant 1/4-cup spacing 3-inches apart on the sheet pan. Bake for 15-17 minutes until the cookies are golden brown. Cool on the sheet pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store in an airtight container.
