Rolo Cookies (405)

The last but certainly not least is the Rolo Cookies! Which are my favorite, I cannot get enough of these, I just want to eat every single cookie that comes out of the oven. Even though these are the most complicated ones.

Rolo Cookies
Cookie Batter-
2.5 cups flour
3/4 cups cocoa
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup margarine
2 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs
1 cup chopped pecans
Outer Layer-
48 Rolos
Sugar
Chopped Pecans
Almond Bark

Mix all of the batter ingredients together and refrigerate for several hours. You may have to melt butter to create a good consistency. After the dough has refrigerated, roll the dough into a little ball and completely submerged the Rolo with all dough. You shouldn't be able to see any of the Rolo. Then press the one side of the dough ball into the sugar and chopped pecans and placed onto a cookie sheet.
Bake at 375 for 7-10 minutes
After the cookies are baked, drizzle the melted almond bark on top of the cooled cookies.

Good news, bad news. This are the most challenging, but they are the most delicious. These are a Christmas must for me. Normally my aunt makes them, and she did these year too, but this year we took the challenge upon ourselves.
We started off a little rough, because I dumped all the ingredients in at once. My mom had a hay day, but fast forward it all worked out. We actually started this on a Saturday and finished them the next day. It was starting to become a huge mess, and we needed to take a break.
Then next day, pajamas in all, we started the process. It was refrigerated, which helped a lot. So we took a small, but large enough amount to cover the entire Rolo. Then flattened out the top, and placed it in a mixture of sugar and pecans. Try and place the mixture only on the top so it stays on. The first batch we made, didn't really turn out, we placed 12 balls on the sheet. This didn't work out, because they all ran together. So we started taking a few off and they turned out a lot better, and started looking like circle cookies (like how cookies are suppose to look). Then just carefully melt the almond bark and drizzle it on.

These are so yummy, my favorites. Its like a normal cookie, with a surprise in the middle.
