We have a running debate over how much whole wheat flour is appropriate for any given recipe; she always wants more than I do. No complaints here, however, for this tasty, attractive, and wholesome version of a childhood favorite. Sift the whole wheat flour a second time with the cream of tartar, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside. In a medium-size mixing bowl, cream the butter until fluffy, scraping down the sides of the bowl. With the mixer still running, add the maple syrup in a thin stream, followed by the eggs, one at a time. Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the creamed mixture, stirring just until blended. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 400F. and put the sugar in a small bowl. With lightly floured hands, roll the dough into balls about 1 1/4 inches in diameter. Roll the balls in the sugar, then place on an ungreased baking sheet, leaving 2 inches between them. Bake for 10 minutes, just until the tops no longer yield to light finger pressure. Transfer to a rack and cool. Store in an airtight container.
