What a delightful surprise these delectable goodies provide. Just be careful not to overbake them. Ten minutes is the 'sweet spot' for most ovens.
Yield: 30 cookies
Ingredients - 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup plus 2 Tbsp. butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon table salt
- Parchment paper
- 30 chocolate-covered caramel candy (such as Rolo)
- Powdered sugar
Directions - Beat granulated sugar, butter, eggs, and vanilla at medium speed with an electric mixer until mixture is blended and smooth.
- Stir together flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to butter mixture, beating just until blended.
- Shape dough into a ball, and wrap in plastic wrap. Chill 2 to 4 hours.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C).
- Remove dough from plastic wrap; shape dough into 30 (1-inch) balls (about 1 Tbsp. each), and place 1 inch apart on parchment paper-lined baking sheets. Flatten each ball into a 2-inch disk.
- Place 1 chocolate-covered caramel candy into center of each disk, and wrap dough around candy to form a ball.
- Bake 10 minutes or until slightly flattened. Cool on baking sheets 8 minutes.
- Sprinkle cookies with powdered sugar.
Serve cookies immediately.
