Notes
If you don't have or can't find cinnamon chips, you could use butterscotch chips or white chocolate chips instead, or even just leave them out.
These bars freeze perfectly in an airtight container or ziplock bag. Or can be stored on the counter for a few days.
I have given both cups and grams as measurements. Grams will be more precise, especially when measuring flour. If you don’t have a kitchen scale, no problem! Just lightly spoon flour into your measuring cup to insure its not packed in there. Light and fluffy is the key.
