A few people have asked me how to better explain how to make the cookies that have the Rolo candy in the middle, so here are more detailed instructions.

Mix a devils food cake mix with 2 eggs, and 1/3 cup oil.  Stir well until all of the ingredients are fully incorporated.  Remember, the mixture will look more like cookie dough than cake batter because that’s what we are making.

Take small scoops of dough.

Flatten them in your hands.

Place a Rolo candy in the center of the dough disk.

 Fold up the edges to envelop the candy.

Once the candy is covered, roll the dough covered candy into a ball.

Place dough balls 1 – 2 inches apart on a lightly greased cookie sheet.

Bake for 10 minutes at 350 degrees until cookies are cracked on top.

Remove from cookie sheet and arrange on cooling racks.

WARNING!  CARAMEL CENTERS ARE WARM AND MAY BURN YOUR MOUTH IF NOT ALLOWED TO COOL FIRST.

We like to eat them when they are still warm from the oven, but usually let them cool for about 10 minutes before cautiously cutting them in half to check the temperature of the caramel filling.

I love these cookies because they come together quickly and make my friends think that I have some serious cooking making skills.  It’s just our little secret that the cookies are really only 4 ingredients.
