This recipe was definately a very rich, sweet and chocolatey cookie. I myself could only handle eating 2 at the most. And another benefit to this cookie was that it was very easy to make and was again perfect for kids to help with. The recipe calls for rolling the dough balls in granulated sugar, but I wondered how the cookie would look if they were rolled in powdered sugar instead. I think it would look very similar to a chocolate crackle cookie. If any of you decide to try it, please comment and let me know how they turn out. I would love to hear about the results.
Chocolate Rolo Cookies
1 pkg. Duncan Hines Devil's food cake mix (must use this brand-no substitutes!)
1/2 cup oil
2 eggs
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
4 pkgs. of Rolo caramel candies
Granulated sugar
Preheat oven to 350 F degrees. In a large mixer bowl combine; cake mix, oil, eggs and flour. Mix well until ingredients are thoroughly combined. Take teaspoonfuls of dough and roll into a ball, place 1 Rolo candy in the center and make sure that the dough completely covers the Rolo. Place some granulated sugar in a small bowl and roll cookie ball into the sugar to completely cover. Place cookie ball onto baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and the let the cookies cool completely before eating. Makes approx. 2-3 dozen cookies depending on size of the cookie ball.
NOTE: these cookies are by far better the second day. They firm up, yet the caramel in the Rolo is still soft. YUM!
