#1 Chocolate Cookie

These cookies are amazing; dangerous if you have little to no control in the sweet department.

I was looking for a cookie to make for Bible Study and I found these at a baking blog (thehungryhousewife.com).

They caught my eye because the ingredients are simple (aka: didn’t need to buy much) and the idea of a hidden surprise inside is just delightful.




Chocolate Rolo Cookies
1 cup butter, softened (2 sticks)
3/4 cup cocoa powder
1 cup sugar
1 tsp. baking soda
1 cup brown sugar
2 tsp. vanilla
2 eggs
2 1/2 cups flour
1 bag Rolos candies

Cream butter and sugars; add eggs and blend. Add cocoa, baking soda, vanilla, and flour; mix well. For each cookie, roll dough around a Rolo to make small balls where the Rolo is hidden inside the dough ball. The balls will be about 1 to 1 1/2 inches around. Roll dough balls in sugar.
Bake at 350 degrees for 7-9 minutes.
The surface on each cookie will begin to crack a little. Once removed from oven, flatten the cookies by patting gently with a spatula. Great warm or cooled!
