HOW TO MAKE ROLO COOKIES
Unwrap Rolos and set them in a bowl. Fill a small bowl with ½ cup white sugar.
Rolo Cookies are so easy and quick to make! In a stand mixer or using a large bowl with hand mixer, cream the softened butter and sugars together until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Add in the eggs and vanilla and mix another minute. Add the dry ingredients one at a time, being careful to sprinkle the salt and baking soda evenly so that a clump doesn't form. Mix until a soft-dough forms.
take a Rolo and form a cookie dough ball around it. The Rolo should be completely covered. Then roll the cookie dough ball in the sugar.
Place on a greased or lined cookie sheet and bake at 350 for 8 minutes. Be careful not to overbake. Let the cookies cool 1-2 minute and then move them to a cooling rack to completely set up.
Eat warm or save for later...if they last that long! These award winning Rolo cookies are going to become a favorite.
