I'd have to say that if there is one thing I love to try new recipes for, it would be desserts :) MMMM. I had these cookies a long time ago, loved them, and then completely forgot about them......until now! I came across this recipe and remembered a long lost love. With chocolate, more chocolate, and caramel, how can you go wrong...really?!

Ingredients:
2 ½ cups flour
¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup sugar
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 cup butter, softened
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 eggs
48 Rolos, unwrapped
1 tablespoon sugar
4 ounces vanilla-flavored candy coating, optional

1. In medium bowl, combine flour, cocoa and baking soda; mix well.
2. In large bowl, combine sugar, brown sugar, and butter; beat until light and fluffy.
