Ingredients
  • 1 cup butter
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 cup light brown sugar (packed)
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 1/2 cups flour (plus another ¼c set aside if dough is too sticky)
  • 3/4 cup cocoa
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 48 Rolo chewy caramels (1 bag is enough) (unwrapped candies)
  • 2 Heath candy bars
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar (add to crushed Heath bars)
Instructions

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.

Topping

Crush candy bars into small pieces (chopping with a knife or mini-chopper). In a small bowl add crushed candy and 1 tbsp of sugar and mix well.

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 37

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!
