I love caramel, and I love cookies. So this is a wonderful recipe, in my opinion! However, be warned. If you don't like to get messy, don't make this. Your hands will be one chocolatey, gooey, disgusting mess!
Chocolate Caramel Cookies
1 c butter, softened
1 c sugar
1 c brown sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
2 1/4 c flour
1 tsp baking soda
3/4 c unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 c chopped walnuts
48 chocolate covered caramel candies (Rollos)
Beat butter until creamy. Gradually beat in white & brown sugars. Beat in eggs & vanilla. Combine flour, baking soda, and cocoa. Gradually add to butter mixture, beating well. Stir in nuts. Cover & chill at least 2 hours. Preheat oven to 375. Divide dough into 4 parts so you can work on 1/4 at a time. Keep the remaining dough in the fridge until you're ready for it, otherwise it's too gooey. Divide the 1/4 dough into 12 pieces. Quickly press each piece around a caramel candy. Roll into a ball, completely covering the caramel candy (otherwise caramel may leak out during baking). Place each ball 2-in. apart on greased baking sheets. Bake 8 min. Let cool 3-4 min. on baking sheets before removing to wire racks to cool completely. Enjoy!
