Back by popular demand...seems several people missed the original posting.
And yes, you can freeze these.
Caramel Filled Cookies
======================
2 1/2 cups flour
3/4 cup cocoa
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup butter, softened
2 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
1 cup pecans, finely chopped
48 Rolo candies
1 Tb sugar
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In small bowl, combine flour, cocoa, and
baking soda. Mix well. In large bowl, beat the sugars and butter until
light and fluffy. Add vanilla and eggs; beat well. Add flour mixture;
blend well. Stir in 1/2 cup of pecans. For each cookkie, with floured
hands, shape about 1 Tb of dough around a Rolo, covering completely.
In small bowl, combine rest of pecans and 1 Tb sugar. Press one side of
each ball in pecan/sugar mixture. Place nut side up on ungreased cookie
sheet, 2 inches apart. Bake 7 - 10 minutes or until set and slightly
cracked. Cool on cookie sheet 2 minutes, then remove and cool completely
on wire racks.
Note: 1 pkg of Rolo candies has 48 in it. I buy 2 packages to allow for
some being eaten during the baking process and because I can get more
than 4 dozen cookies out of the dough.
