Rolo Cookies

Rolo Cookies

 2 1/2 cups flour

3/4 cups cocoa

1 tsp baking soda

1 cup sugar

1 cup brown sugar

1 cup butter

2 tsp vanilla

2 eggs

1 pkg Rolos

A bit of sugar for garnish

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Beat sugars and butter until fluffy. Add vanilla and eggs to mixture and beat until combined. Combine flour, coca, and soda. Add flour mixture to fluffy mixture.

Unwrap the Rolo candies and get them ready. Shape about a teaspoon of dough around each Rolo and be sure to cover it completely. You want it to be about the size of a golf ball. Press one side of the dough ball into the leftover sugar. Place sugar-side up on a baking sheet, about two inches apart. You’ll end up with about three dozen cookies. If you don’t want to make that many right away, just put the dough balls in a Ziploc bag and freeze them.

 Bake for 8 minutes until the edges start to crisp.
