Chocolate Cinnamon Crisps

1/8 cup (3/4 stick) butter

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 cup dark corn syrup

1/2 t. vanilla extract

2 T. unsweetened cocoa powder

1 1/2 cups flour

1 t. ground cinnamon

Preheat oven to 375. Grease baking sheets. Melt the butter in a large pan, then stir in the sugar and corn syrup. Bring the mixture to a simmer, remove from heat and stir in the vanilla. In a mixing bowl, sift the cocoa powder, flour and cinnamon together until thoroughly blended. Add this mixture to the contents of the pan and mix thoroughly to make a thick batter. Drop the batter by scant teaspoonfuls about 2" apart onto the prepared baking sheets.

Bake about 5 minutes, or until the cookies have spread and the edges are browned. Do not overbake. Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool for several minute on the baking sheets before removing them to wire racks to cool completely. Makes about 5 dozen cookies
