In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter until creamy. Add the granulated sugar and beat until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the egg, cinnamon, salt, vanilla and zest. Add flour and mix until just combined. Fold in cinnamon chips. Divide the dough in half
Generously sprinkle a work surface with turbindo sugar. Shape each half of dough into an 18-to 20-inch long rope and roll in the sugar, adding more sugar as needed to prevent sticking. Wrap each piece in a large sheet of plastic wrap and chill until firm, at least 1 hour or overnight. (The colder the dough the easier it will be to slice).
Preheat the oven to 350°. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Unwrap 1 piece of dough. and slice into 1/2-inch-thick slices, spacing 1 inch apart on prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining piece of cookie dough. Bake the cookies for about 15 minutes, or until crisp and golden. Let cool on the baking sheets 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.
