    You can use as much or as little as you like.

    For the amount of strips I had, I used about 1 tablespoon of cinnamon (my husband loves cinnamon).

    To make dusting as even as possible (and avoid lumps) I dusted my strips with a tiny sifter.

    Pick up each strip and twist it into a spiral.

    Place the twist on your cookie sheet and gently press both ends down to secure your cookie and insure each one doesnt unravel.

    Enjoy with tea, coffee ... or dipped in warm caramel or chocolate ganache!
