Chocolate Snaps

Preheat the oven to 350 F. Mix together the butter, 1 cup of the sugar and the egg in a large bowl. Beat with a mixer on low speed until creamy. Blend in the melted chocolate, corn syrup and vanilla. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Add the dry mixture to the chocolate mixture and mix well. Place the remaining ½ cup of sugar in a small bowl. Shape the dough into 1-inch balls and roll in the sugar. Bake for 12 minutes on an ungreased cookie sheet. Makes 6 dozen cookies.
