Rolo Cookies

Can you stand it? Another cookie! But let’s face it, we are baking a lot around the holidays and this cookie is always a winner. I like to call it the “Chocolate Magical Caramel Surprise Cookie,” because inevitably when I make these I always get the question, “how did you get the caramel inside the cookie?” But hopefully the name Rolo Cookie is self explanatory. So go ahead and make these and then you can tell people how magical you are!

Rolo Cookies

  • 1 1/2 cup flour
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup butter
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla
  •  36 Rolos
  • 4 Tablespoon sugar

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a small mixing bowl combine flour, cocoa, and baking soda. Set aside. In a stand up mixer cream butter and both sugars until well blended. Add the eggs and vanilla. Mix until eggs are fully incorporated. Add dry ingredients and mix well. Shape the dough into small balls.

Then press the Rolo into the center of the ball and cover with dough until Rolo is covered. Place 4 Tablespoons of sugar in a shallow bowl. Roll dough around in the sugar until coated. Place ball on a cookie sheet and cook for 12-14  minutes. Yields about 2 1/2 dozen.

  1. I still remember the commercial ditty from when I was a kid, “You can roll a rolo to your friend, it’s chocolate covered caramel from end to end”. My kids roll their eyes when I sing it. Seriously yummy cookies, though. I don’t think they’d roll their eyes if I baked a batch.
