Ingredients

1 1/3

cups sugar

1

cup plus 2 tablespoons butter or margarine, softened

1

teaspoon vanilla

2

eggs

3

cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour

1

teaspoon baking powder

1

bag (6 oz) semisweet chocolate chips (1 cup)

3

tablespoons sugar

3/4

teaspoon ground cinnamon

Preparation

Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, beat 1 1/3 cups sugar, the butter, vanilla and eggs with electric mixer on medium speed, or mix with spoon. Stir in flour and baking powder. Stir in chocolate chips.

Divide dough into fourths. Shape each fourth into roll, 1 inch in diameter and about 15 inches long, on lightly floured surface. Place rolls about 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten slightly with fork to about 5/8-inch thickness. Mix 3 tablespoons sugar and the cinnamon; sprinkle over dough.

Bake 13 to 15 minutes or until edges are light brown. Cut diagonally into about 1-inch strips while warm.
