Notes

Make Ahead: Place cooled loaves in a large resealable plastic bag and store at room temperature for 3-4 days or in the refrigerator for 7 days.  This bread also freezes well.  Wrap each loaf in plastic wrap, then place in a resealable plastic freezer bag and freeze for up to 4 months.  Thaw at room temperature before warming to your liking.
Cinnamon Chips: Although few stores carry cinnamon chips throughout the year, you can alwasy order them online at the Hershey's Store.  Having said that, be sure to stock up when you do see them (they last longer in the freezer)!  White chocolate chips make a great substitution for this recipe. 
Keep the Chips From Sinking: Toss cinnamon chips in a bowl with 2 tablepsoons flour before folding them into the batter to prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the bread. 
Snickerdoodle Muffins: To make Snickerdoodle Muffins, use the recipe above but divide the batter among the wells of two lined 12-cup muffin tins.  Fill each well about two-thirds full and bake at 350 degrees F for 18-20 minutes. Makes 18 larger or 24 smaller muffins.
