- 1 cup butter
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 cup light brown sugar packed
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 2 eggs
- 2 ½ cup flour plus another ¼c set aside if dough is too sticky
- 3/4 cup cocoa
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 48 Rolo chewy caramels 1 bag is enough (unwrapped candies)
- 2 Heath candy bars
- 1 tbsp white sugar add to crushed Heath bars
- Parchment paper
Dough:
Beat sugars and butter until fluffy, add eggs and vanilla and beat well.
In a separate bowl, mix flour, cocoa and baking soda.
Add flour mixture to sugar mixture (small bit at a time) and blend well. (Feel free to sprinkle in extra flour if the dough is too sticky.)
Cover and cool dough in fridge for about 1/2 hour to make it easier to work with.
Take this time to unwrap the caramel candies.
Assembly:
Shape dough into 1″ ball around caramel, covering it completely.
Dip top of the dough ball into the crushed candy topping. *easiest to do all the chocolate balls, and then dip into topping when placing on cookie sheet
Baking:
Bake on parchment paper for 7-10 minutes at 375°.
DO NOT OVER BAKE – they will look quite soft. Cool in pan slightly then move to a cooling rack or flat surface. *easiest to bake on parchment paper and slide cookies and parchment off the tray when cooling
Keep in a container once cooled. These cookies freeze well!
Reheat: Cook slightly (10 seconds) in microwave to get the insides gooey.
