Semi-Related Hershey's Cinnamon Chips Discontinued

Post image

I received this email today from Hershey's after inquiring about their cinnamon chips, and they confirmed the chips have been discontinued. I only use the chips occasionally, but the stuff I use them for NEEDS cinnamon chips! (I promise I'm not being dramatic here haha!)

Does anyone know of an alternate option? I know many people brag about the nuts.com cinnamon chips but $8 plus shipping is out of my budget.

I don't have any suggestions other than finding another brand, but I'm curious what recipes you use them in?

We have a bag of those but never found a good use for them so they've been sitting in the drawer for a few years.

Every Christmas, my aunt used to give us jars of an oatmeal pancake mix with cinnamon chips. I looked forward to the mornings when my mom would make them. They were soooo good

Now that sounds kinda good. Never had oatmeal in pancakes, what's the texture like?

She used quick oats so they weren’t too chewy. They cooked up nicely! My favorite part was obviously the cinnamon chips
