Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 36 pieces Rolo candies
- 0.25 cup Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. The cookie dough will be thick.
Scoop out about 1 tablespoon of dough and flatten it slightly in your palm. Place a Rolo candy in the center and wrap the dough around it, rolling it into a ball. Ensure the candy is completely covered by the dough.
Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cookies are set around the edges but still soft in the center.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
If desired, dust the cooled cookies lightly with powdered sugar before serving.
