I was stuck at home yesterday night because of some car troubles, but it worked out great because my sister came over to keep me company.

Ahhhh, the JoC, a real blast from the past when it comes to the breathtaking amount of butter and sugar she generally recommends for baked goods. Weird about the cookies though...is this one of those old-timey cookie doughs that are supposed to chill in the refrig and then get cut?

I think that cream of tartar is simply a powder that's acidic, since the baking soda needs an acid to react with a provide bubbles. And I think that's precisely what baking powder generally is--baking soda plus an acid to react with when wetted. I've fudged baking soda + cream of tartar before by using enough baking power to equal or just barely exceed the combined volumes of the other two and it's worked out okay.
