Granny's Chocolate Biscuits

2 c. all purpose flour
3/4 c. sugar, divided
4 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
2/3 c. butter, divided
1 (6 oz.) pkg. (1 cup) Nestle Toll House semi sweet chocolate morsels
2/3 c. milk
1 tsp. cinnamon
In large bowl, combine flour, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder and salt. Using pastry blender or 2 knives, cut in 1/3 cup butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in Nestle Toll House semi sweet chocolate morsels. Add milk; stir until dough holds a shape. On floured board, knead dough lightly. Roll dough into 16 balls. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In small saucepan, melt remaining 1/3 cup butter. Pour 1/2 of melted butter in 8 inch square baking pan. In cup, combine remaining 1/2 cup sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle 1/3 cinnamon/sugar mixture over butter in baking pan. Place dough balls in single layer in pan. Brush with remaining melted butter. Sprinkle with remaining cinnamon/sugar mixture. Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes. Cool 10 minutes; remove from pan. Serve warm.

Wonder rather than doubt is the root of knowledge.
