Original recipe yields 4 dozen
Directions
- Beat butter and 1/2 cup sugar in large bowl until well blended; stir in corn syrup, egg and vanilla. In a separate bowl, combine flour, cocoa and baking soda; gradually add this dry mixture to butter mixture. Blend well. Cover and refrigerate dough for 1 hour or until firm enough to handle.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- In a small bowl, combine remaining 1/4 cup sugar and cinnamon. Shape dough into 1 inch balls; roll each ball in sugar mixture and arrange on a cookie sheet. Using your thumb, make an indentation in center of each cookie.
- Bake in a preheated 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven for 7 to 8 minutes or until just set.
- Remove the cookies from the oven. If the indentation has grown indistinct, use the top of a spoon and press indentation in further. Immediately place 1 teaspoon white chips into each indentation. After several minutes, swirl the melted chips with a spoon. Top with toffee bits and maraschino cherry halves (if desired). Cool cookies on a wire rack.

The cinnamon sugar seemed a strange combination with the chocolate, but the slight cinnamon aftertaste of the cookie is my favorite part."

"These cookies came out great and were fun to make with the kids. We did get a little creative with the toppings and strayed from the recipe.

They had fun rolling them and making the thumbprint. Then when they were baked they loved putting on the toppings!"
