Crisp Cocoa-Pecan Cookies
- 1 1/3 cups all purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons natural unsweetened cocoa powder (scooped into measuring spoon, then leveled)
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 10 tablespoons (1 1/4 sticks) unsalted butter, melted, cooled
- 1/3 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons light corn syrup
- 2 tablespoons whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
- 1/2 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
- Whisk flour, cocoa, baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon (generous) salt in medium bowl. Stir butter and next 5 ingredients in another medium bowl until smooth. Stir in flour mixture, then nuts. Cover and chill until firm enough to scoop, at least 4 hours. DO AHEAD:
- Position 1 rack in top third and 1 rack in bottom third of oven; preheat to 325u0b0F. Line 3 large baking sheets with parchment. Measure 2 level tablespoonfuls dough; roll between palms into ball. Place on prepared sheet. Using fingers, spread out dough to 3-inch-diameter disk. Repeat with remaining dough, spacing 5 inches apart.
- Bake cookies 8 minutes; reverse sheets. Bake cookies until flat and beginning to darken around edges, about 10 minutes. Transfer cookies on parchment to rack (cookies will crisp as they cool). DO AHEAD:
- Place rack inside rimmed baking sheet. Place chocolate chips in small microwave- safe bowl. Heat chips in microwave in 15-second intervals until smooth, stirring occasionally. Place cookies on rack. Drizzle melted chocolate over cookies. Let stand until chocolate sets, about 30 minutes.
