Instructions
Prepare Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Pro tip: Sifting the cocoa powder prevents lumps.
Cream Butter and Sugars
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Pro tip: Use an electric mixer for best results.
Add Eggs and Vanilla
Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
Pro tip: Ensure eggs are at room temperature for better mixing.
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
Gradually blend in the dry ingredients until the dough is just combined.
Pro tip: Do not overmix to keep cookies tender.
Shape Cookies
Roll tablespoons of dough into balls and flatten slightly. Place a Rolo candy in the centre and wrap the dough around it, sealing the edges.
Pro tip: Chill dough briefly if it becomes too soft to handle.
Bake Cookies
Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F). Place cookies 5 cm (2 inches) apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes, until edges are firm.
Pro tip: Cookies will continue to cook on the cookie sheet after removing from oven.
Tips & Tricks
- Chill the dough for easier handling and shaping.
- Use a cookie scoop for uniform cookie sizes.
- Bake until the edges are firm but the centre is still soft for a gooey middle.
