And I couldn’t resist looking up these Rolo Cookies. They’re next on my list to create in the kitchen.
Ingredients:
-
1 cup sugar
-
1 cup brown sugar
-
1 cup butter or margarine (I use butter)
-
2 eggs
- 2 t. vanilla
- 1 t baking soda
-
2 1/2 cups flour
-
3/4 cup cocoa
-
13 oz. bag of Rolos
-
sugar (for rolling the pre-baked cookies in)
Directions: Blend sugar, brown sugar and butter together in a bowl. Add eggs and vanilla to sugar mixture and blend well. Sift together in a small bowl, flour, cocoa, and baking soda. Add flour mixture to sugar mixture and blend well. Take a spoonful of cookie dough and wrap around rolo. Roll into ball so that the rolo is completely covered with dough and roll in sugar. Bake at 375 degrees for 7-10 minutes. I rolled half of mine in regular sugar and half in Turbinado(sugar in the raw) sugar.I really like the turbinado sugar. It makes them so pretty and gives them a little crunch on the outside.
