You will see that the recipe calls for cinnamon chips. These can be found in the baking aisle near the chocolate chips.
Cinnamon chips are seasonal in some areas, so if you can’t find them, you can substitute white chocolate chips and add 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon to the flour mixture.

You will also need 2 cookie sheets and parchment paper for lining.
Line your cookie sheets and set them aside.
