Day 17: Because these taste like the filling of cinnamon strudels

I grew up on Toaster Strudels for breakfast. The cinnamon ones were always my fave. I'm not sure if anyone else in my family liked them, which would explain why we didn't get them very often. We normally had strawberry. Or raspberry. Or some other fruit. But the cinnamon ones? That's where the deliciousness was.

These things taste just like the filling in them. I present to you Chewy Cinnamon Cookies.

They are made with melted cinnamon chips in the batter and then you drizzle cinnamon melt all over the top. Um, yum.

I must tell you all that I passed the 3 pound butter mark with these cookies. For those keeping track at home, I have gone through 3 pounds of butter, 5 pounds of flour and 18 eggs so far. The sugar is harder to keep track of because some recipes call for brown sugar, others call for powdered sugar, etc. But I've gone through a lot of that stuff too. And I am kind of starting to hate myself because of it. But I must push on...only a few more days until Christmas!
