Crinkles o' Cinnamon

Cinnamon Crinkles

These cookies are an old favorite. 13 short years ago I would make a bucket of these cookies for each of my co-workers…. That was when I had 6 co-workers. Now? 44 co-workers… they might get a full tray to share, no more bucket o’ cookies for each person. They stay soft and chewy – so addicting.
