Ingredients

48 servings

•

2.5 cups all-purpose flour
•

0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
•

1 teaspoon baking soda
•

1 cup white sugar
•

1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
•

1 cup butter, softened

•

2 teaspoons vanilla extract
•

2 eggs
•

48 chocolate-covered caramel candies (such as Rolo®)
•

2 tablespoons white sugar
•

4 ounces chocolate almond bark (chocolate confectioners coating)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Mix flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda together in a small bowl. Beat 1 cup white sugar, brown sugar, and butter together in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Add vanilla extract and eggs; beat well. Stir flour mixture into sugar mixture; mix well.
Lightly flour hands. Shape about 1 tablespoon dough around 1 chocolate-covered caramel candy, covering it completely. Repeat with remaining dough and caramel candies.
Place 2 tablespoons white sugar in a small bowl. Press one side of each ball into sugar. Place balls, sugar sides up, onto a baking sheet, about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven until cookie is set and slightly cracked, 7 to 10 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for about 2 minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
Melt almond bark in a saucepan over low heat. Drizzle over cookies.
