Cookie Recipe #16

Mmmmm...more chocolate cookies.
Caramel Filled Chocolate Cookies

1 c butter, softened
1 c white sugar
1 c packed brown sugar
2 eggs
2 t vanilla extract
2 1/4 c all-purpose flour
1 t baking soda
3/4 c unsweetened cocoa powder
1 c chopped walnuts
1 T white sugar
48 chocolate-covered caramel candies

Beat butter until creamy. Gradually beat in white sugar & brown sugar. Beat in eggs & vanilla. Combine flour, baking soda, & cocoa. Gradually add to butter mixture, beating well. Stir in 1/2 c walnuts. Cover & chill at least 2 hours. Preheat oven to 375. Combine remaining 1/2 c nuts with the 1 T sugar. Divide the dough into 4 parts. Work with one part at a time, leaving the remainder in the refrigerator until needed. Divide each part into 12 pieces. Quickly press each piece of dough around a chocolate covered caramel. Roll into a ball. Dip the tops into the sugar mixture. Place sugar side up, 2 inches apart on greased baking sheets. Bake for 8 min. Let cool for 3-4 mins on the baking sheets before removing to wire racks to cool completely.


Another batch of sinful cookies that I really shouldn't try. Damn they do sound good though.
