Caramel Filled Chocolate Cookies image

After making these for my daughter's slumber party last year, I got three phone requests for the recipe the next day.

Time 1h32m

Yield 48 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup butter, softened
1 cup white sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 1/4 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
48 chocolate-covered caramel candies (I use Rollos)

Steps:

  • Beat butter until creamy.
  • Gradually beat in white sugar and brown sugar.
  • Beat in eggs and vanilla.
  • Combine flour, baking soda, salt and cocoa.
  • Gradually add to butter mixture, beating well.
  • Cover and chill at least 2 hours.
  • Divide dough into 48 pieces.
  • Start by dividing dough into four equal pieces; then divide each piece into thirds; then each of those pieces in half to make 24; and each of those in half again to make 48 pieces.
  • Flatten each piece slightly and return to refrigerator.
  • Working with a few at a time, and leaving the remainder in the frige, press a piece of dough around a rollo, being careful to cover it completely.
  • (I find the rollos easier to handle when they're pre-chilled) Roll into a ball.
  • Place 2-inches apart on a greased cookie sheet.
  • Bake for 8 minutes in preheated 375°.
  • Let cool for 3-4 minutes before removing from baking sheet or caramel will run out the bottom of cookie.
