Lowe's or that other Big Box store has, in the Concrete isle, some patch 
material for just this type of repair. It is made to re-surface steps and 
porches and the like to prevent water from pooling and freezing.  There are 
very exact instructions on how to prepare the surface.  If you don't follow 
them, the patch will flake off in short order. Don't ask me how I know.
