Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line three baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a bowl, cream together softened unsalted butter, cold cream cheese, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and molasses until light and fluffy.
Mix in one large egg, one egg yolk, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Gradually add all-purpose flour, baking powder, cream of tartar, and sea salt; mix until just combined.
