CHOCOLATE ROLO COOKIES

Chewy chocolate cookies are seriously the death of me…well all cookies are, but lately, chocolate has me wrapped around its chewy chocolatey little finger. See, this is the problem….having a sweet tooth and not being a picky eater. One day, I love all things strawberry and the next I want chocolate and caramel. What gives? Seriously, it’s so hard… 😉

I had two recipe fails last week. Not one, but two. Ya know, it’s frustrating, but I learn a ton when things don’t always turn out right, and I never make the same mistakes twice…or I shouldn’t make the same mistakes twice. Anyway though…these Chocolate Rolo Cookies are definitely not a fail. I must say, these are reeeeeaaally good. Like I’m kind of mad I brought them to work and didn’t leave them at home to munch on kind of good. That is my sweet tooth devil talking, not the real me, sometimes she can be selfish.

Rolos! Gosh they’re addicting, aren’t they? They are great to bake with, too. I tried making something sort of similar with caramel cadbury eggs and it just didn’t work out. The caramel literally melted through the entire cookie leaving absolutely no chunks and turning the cookie burnt brown. Yes, it’s a color. Rolos don’t do that – they hold up really well.
