About the Cinnamon Chips

Hershey’s cinnamon chips can be found in the baking aisle of your grocery store. They usually appear in September, and disappear shortly after Thanksgiving. If you can’t find them, you can order them online.

If you can’t find the cinnamon chips, and don’t want to order, just leave them out. This snickerdoodle bread is still delicious!

Helpful Tips

  • When filling the loaf pans, it’s helpful to use a large scoop. Three heaping scoops in each of the five pans works beautifully. Size of loaf pans I used: 5.5 x 3 x 2.25 inches.
  • To freeze: wrap each cooled loaf in plastic wrap. Place loaves in a resealable freezer bag. They will last in the freezer for up to two months.

  2. Made this today! It is Soo good. I was not able to find the cinnamon chips, but think it tastes delicious. Plan to give some as gifts.

  3. I made this last week and it was so yummy! Each bite leaves you wanting more. I’ve stocked up on cinnamon chips for the holidays. Thanks for sharing another great recipe!

  4. Ann,

    I made this last year after seeing your recipe. I got several compliments on it.
    I had to go to 5 grocery stores to find the chips so this year I am stocking up early.
    It is an easy delicious gift and I plan to make several batches.

    I made this bread the 1st time I saw the recipe on your site. I do a lot of baking for the holidays and I must say this is everyone’s new favorite!!! Cinnamon chips aren’t always easy to find but most stores have them during the holiday season.

  6. Sounds wonderful! Where do you find “cinnamon chips”??
