If you can't find cinnamon-flavored chips, sub white chocolate chips and increase the ground cinnamon to 1 1/2 teaspoons.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup flavored ground coffee (such as hazelnut)
2 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (see above note)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup chopped hazelnuts
3/4 cup cinnamon baking chips (see above note)
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350ºF. Line a large baking sheet with nonstick aluminum foil.
2. Beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Stir in vanilla.
3. Place coffee in food processor and pulse until finely ground. Add flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon and salt; pulse to blend.
4. Add flour/coffee mixture to butter and stir until smooth. Stir in hazelnuts and cinnamon chips.
5. Divide dough in half and with floured hands, place halves on prepared baking sheet. Pat into logs measuring about 12-inches long by 2 1/2-inches wide.
6. Bake for 28-20 minutes or until browned on the edges. Remove from oven and cool for 10 minutes.
7. Place logs on a cutting board and cut into 1/2-inch slices, for a total of 32.
8. Put slices, cut side down, back onto baking sheet and bake an additional 15-18 minutes.
9. Transfer to rack and cool completely. Store in air-tight containers.
