How to Make Pecan Rolo Cookies
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 cup granulated sugar, and ½ cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, and 1 teaspoon baking soda.
- In a small bowl, combine ½ cup chopped pecans and 1 tablespoon granulated sugar.
- Beat in 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract into the creamed butter and sugar mixture until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients (flour mixture) to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in ½ cup chopped pecans.
- Using floured hands, roll 1 tablespoon of dough around 1 Rolo candy.
- Gently press one side of the dough-covered Rolo into the pecan-sugar mixture.
- Place cookies onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving 2 inches between each cookie.
- Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 7-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the cookies are slightly cracked.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Makes approximately 4 dozen cookies.
