Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C). Line a 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  3. Add the eggs and vanilla extract; beat until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cream of tartar, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the white chocolate morsels.
Layering and Baking
  1. Press half of the dough into the prepared baking pan.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon; sprinkle over the dough.
  3. Layer the remaining dough over the cinnamon-sugar filling and press the additional white chocolate morsels on top.
  4. Bake for 32 to 35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
  5. Allow to cool completely before cutting into squares.
