A family favorite and always the first to go at bake sales. These cookies are soft and fudgy with warm caramel in the middle. Best served warm. Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 cup white sugar |
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar |
1 cup butter, softened |
2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
2 eggs |
48 chocolate-covered caramel candies (such as rolo®) |
2 tablespoons white sugar |
4 ounces chocolate almond bark (chocolate confectioners coating) (optional) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2. Mix flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda together in a small bowl. Beat 1 cup white sugar, brown sugar, and butter together in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Add vanilla extract and eggs; beat well. Stir flour mixture into sugar mixture; mix well.
3. Lightly flour hands. Shape about 1 tablespoon dough around 1 chocolate-covered caramel candy, covering it completely. Repeat with remaining dough and caramel candies.
4. Place 2 tablespoons white sugar in a small bowl. Press one side of each ball into sugar. Place balls, sugar sides up, onto a baking sheet, about 2 inches apart.
5. Bake in the preheated oven until cookie is set and slightly cracked, 7 to 10 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for about 2 minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
6. Melt almond bark in a saucepan over low heat. Drizzle over cookies.
