How to Make Chocolate Caramel Rolo Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted margarine and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 1 cup packed brown sugar and 2 large eggs. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, and 1 teaspoon baking soda.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Cover the bowl and refrigerate the dough for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours).
  7. Roll the chilled dough into 1-inch balls. Place one Rolo candy in the center of each dough ball.
  8. Gently enclose the Rolo completely with the dough, ensuring no caramel is showing.
  9. Roll each dough ball in ½ cup granulated sugar.
  10. Place the cookies onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
  11. Bake for 7-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft. Do not overbake!
  12. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 1 minute before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
