Cooking day instructions
Melt chocolate in double boiler. Combine flour, soda, cinnamon, and salt and set aside. Combine shortening, sugar, and egg. Add syrup, extract, and melted chocolate. Gradually blend in the flour mixture. Shape into balls and roll in sugar. Bake at 350 degrees on ungreased cookie sheets for 10–12 minutes. Freeze, using instructions for baked goods.
