• 1 1/2 cups Unbleached all-Purpose flour (7 1/2 oz)
• 3/4tuptutch-processed cocoa powder (3 oz)
• 1/2tsp baking soda
• 3/8tsp salt
• 1/2tup Dark Corn Syrup
• 1targe egg white
• 1tsp Vanilla Extract
• 12tbsp unsalted butter (1 1/2 Sticks), softened
• 1/3tup packed Dark Brown Sugar (2 1/2 oz)
• 4tz bittersweet chocolate, chopped into 1/2 inch pieces
• 1/2tup Granulated sugar for coating

1. 1. Adjust oven racks to upper - and lower middle positions and heat oven to 375 degrees. Line 2 large ( 18 x 12 inch) backing sheets with parchment paper. Place 1/2 cup granulated sugar in shallow baking dish or pie plate. Wisk flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt together in medium bowl. Wisk corn syrup, egg white and vanilla together in small bowl.
2. 2. In stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment, beat butter, brown sugar and remaining 1/3 cup granulated sugar at medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Reduce speed to medium-low, add corn syrup mixture and beat until fully incorporated, about 20 seconds, scraping bowl once with rubber spatuala. With mixer running at low speed, add flour mixture and chopped chocolate; mix until just incorporated, about 30 seconds, scrapping bowl once. Give dough final stir with rubber spatula to ensure that no pockets of flour remain at bottom. Chill dough 30 minutes to firm slightly (do not chill longer than 30 minutes).
3. 3. Divide dough into 16 equal portions; roll between hands into balls about 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Working in batches, drop 8 dough balls into backing dish with sugar and toss to coat. Set dough balls on prepared baking sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart; reapeat with second batch of 8. Bake, reversing position of the baking sheets halfway through baking (from top to bottom and front to back), until cookies are puffed and cracked and edges have begun to set but centers are still soft (cookies will look raw between cracks and seem underdone), 10 to 11 minutes. Do not overbake.
4. 4. Cool cookies on baking sheet 5 minutes, then use wide metal spatula to transfer cookies to wire rack; cool cookies to room temperature.
