Oh sweet cinnamon and sugar. I feel that this pair comes through my house at least once a week. Thank goodness for Costco Cinnamon tubs! I have used the same snickerdoodle recipe for years, but I thought it was about time I mix it up. The only thing I changed, was that I added brown sugar, and I made cinnamon chips! The chips added a whole new dimension to the cookie, and brought a burst of cinnamon flavor.
To make the chips, I just mixed sugar, cinnamon, shortening and corn syrup. That turned into a crumbley mixture that I poured onto a cookie sheet with foil and baked. Once it was cooked I removed the flatened out sheets of cinnamon and let it dry.
Then I chopped those up into little chips, and mixed them into my batter.
Next I scooped about 2 tablespoons into a ball and rolled it in cinnamon sugar.
Once the balls of dough were covered, I placed them on an ungreased baking sheet and flatten them slightly with my palm. Then sprinkled a bit of Pure Cane Sugar on top.
Then bake at 400 for 8 minutes!
Once I took them out of the oven I sprinkled on some extra cane sugar! Then you can try to let them cool… but if you can’t wait much longer, give them a try!
Enjoy!!
