Chewy Chocolate Cinnamon Cookies

My cousin Angel sent this one to me:
6 T butter, softened
2/3 C packed light brown sugar
3 T, plus 1/4 C granulated sugar
1/4 t ground cinnamon
1/4 C light corn syrup
1 large egg
1 t vanilla (best quality)
1 t baking soda
1 1/2 C all-purpose flour
1/3 C unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 t ground cinnamon

1. Preheat oven to 350. Spray cookie sheet w/ non-stick cooking spray.
2. Beat butter until creamy. Add brown sugar and 3 T granulated sugar; beat until well blended. Add corn syrup, cinnamon, egg, vanilla and baking soda; beat well.
3. Stir together flour and cocoa; beat into butter mixture. If batter becomes too stiff, use wooden spoon to stir in remaining flour. Cover; refrigerate about 30 minutes, if necessary, until batter is firm enough to shape into 1 inch balls. Combine remaining 1/4 C granulated sugar and cinnamon; roll balls in mixture. Place balls 2 inches apart on prepared cookie sheet.
4. Bake 9 to 10 minutes or until cookies are set and tops are cracked. Cool slightly; remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely.
