Servings: 24 cookies
Calories: 203kcal
Ingredients
- 10 tbsp butter softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups flour
- 2 ¼ cups cocoa powder
- 1 ½ tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- 24 Rollo's or unwrapped caramels
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- Coarse salt
Instructions
- Prep: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and prepare a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray or parchment paper, set aside.
- Dough: Cream the butter and sugars together in a bowl until pale and fluffy (about 4 minutes). Add in eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then add in vanilla and mix well.
- Proceed to add in the dry ingredients, the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt, mix again until combined.
- Caramel center: Scoop the dough into 2 tablespoon sized balls. Use floured hands to roll it into a nice ball shape.
- Press a caramel or Rollo into the center of the cookie dough, sprinkle with a little of the coarse salt and then cover with the dough by bringing it up and over the sides and pinching it closed. You want the caramel to be completely hidden.
- Bake: Re-roll the balls so they look nice. Roll in powdered sugar & place on the prepared cookie sheet leaving about 2 inches of space between (or more) so there's a little room to spread without touching.
- Bake in the oven for 11-13 minutes and allow the cookies to cool on the sheet for 5 minutes. Coat again in powdered sugar, if desired. Enjoy!
