I’m not sure how old this recipe is but likely from the 1980’s to 2000 or so. The recipe is written in green ink on a festive recipe card and I found it in a large collection of recipes. The recipe card was tucked in a plastic bag with a sample ornament (this is like a gingerbread but not edible). The ornament still smells very cinnamon! Recipe is typed below along with a scanned copy.

RecipeCurio Note: 4.12 ounces would be about 117 gram bag of cinnamon.
