What could be better than a chocolate cookie that has a melted Rolo candy inside?! Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups flour |
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 cup granulated sugar |
1 cup brown sugar, packed |
1 cup butter, softened |
2 teaspoons vanilla |
2 large eggs |
1 cup pecans or 1 cup walnuts, finely chopped |
52 chocolate-covered caramel candies (rolos, 6 rolls) |
1 tablespoon sugar |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F (It's important to make sure the oven is preheated to 350°). The cookies should be done in exactly 10 minutes.
2. In a medium bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda; mix well.
3. In a large bowl, beat the sugars and butter until light and fluffy.
4. Add vanilla and eggs; beat well.
5. Add flour mixture; blend well.
6. Stir in 1/2 cup of the chopped nuts.
7. For each cookie, weigh out 3/4 ounce of dough (approximately 1 tablespoon) and shape around a Rolo, covering completely.
8. In a small bowl, combine rest of nuts and 1 tablespoon of sugar.
9. Roll unbaked cookie in nut/sugar mixture. Place on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet, 2 inches apart.
10. Bake 10 minutes or until set and slightly cracked. DO NOT OVERBAKE.
11. Cool on cookie sheet 2 minutes, then remove and cool completely on wire racks.
12. Note: I get exactly 52 cookies-this leaves 2 Rolo candies to eat.
