Serves: 36
 
Ingredients
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¾ cup cocoa
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (separated)
  • 36 regular sized Rolos
  • 36 mini Rolos
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375F.
  2. Line a cookie baking sheet with a silicone baking mat and set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, beat together butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar until well mixed.
  4. Add in eggs and vanilla extract. Beat just until mixed.
  5. In a separate medium-sized bowl, combine flour, baking soda, cocoa, and salt. Stir well to mix.
  6. Pour dry ingredients into wet ingredients and beat just until mixed. Do not over mix.
  7. Stir in 1 cup of chocolate chips. Set the other ½ cup of chocolate chips aside for now.
  8. Form cookies into 1 tablespoon sized balls, flatten each and place a regular sized Rolo in the middle of each cookie then roll the cookie back into a ball shape so the Rolo is completely covered in cookie dough. Place cookies (2 inches apart) on baking sheet.
  9. Place one mini Rolo on the top of each cookie then use the remaining ½ cup of chocolate chips to press a few into the top of each cookie dough ball before baking.
  10. Bake for 7-9 minutes.
  11. Remove from oven and let cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to wire rack to cool completely.
