Did I have you attention at “cinnamon chip?” Or was it “snickerdoodle?” Perhaps “cookie bars?” Maybe you’re here for the giveaway. Either way, I’ve got your attention.
I found a bag of cinnamon chips at Target (where else?) and picked them up. They’ve been sitting in my pantry for a couple of months before I stumbled across them again while looking for something to bake with. It was fate.
Cinnamon chips are way better than butterscotch chips. They look exactly the same with their color and texture, but butterscotch chips are kind of… meh to me. I do love See’s Candies butterscotch lollipops, though.
Anyways, these bars are chock full of cinnamon and resemble a thick snickerdoodle. They’re a lot more rich, so you can’t eat as many of these as you could with cookies.
These bars are also a lot sweeter than your regular snickerdoodle, so be prepared for a good sugar kick for the day.
