Ingredients
  

  • 1 ⅓ cups granulated sugar
  • 3 Tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • 4 Tablespoons shortening
  • 3 Tablespoons corn syrup
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • To a small bowl, mix together the sugar, cinnamon, soft shortening, corn syrup and vanilla. It will clump together.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and pour the crumbly cinnamon mixture on top. Using a rolling pin or your fingers, shape the cinnamon mixture into a thin rectangle. It should cover almost the entire sheet of parchment paper.
  • Bake until melted and bubbly, about 30-40 minutes. The key is to look for the bubbles! 
  • Let cool completely and then cut (using kitchen shears) or break into small pieces. I find it easier to cut mine with scissors. 
  • Store in an airtight container and use in any recipe that calls for cinnamon chips.
