Rolo Cake Mix Cookies
Description
This cookie recipe uses store-bought devil's food cake mix combined with eggs and neutral oil to create a chocolate dough. Chilling the dough firms it for easier handling. Cookies are shaped by placing a Rolo candy inside flattened dough, then sealing and baking briefly. The candy melts inside, creating a chewy filling amid a soft cookie shell. The final cookies are tender, rich, and have a caramel center.
Sprinkling with powdered sugar after baking adds an extra layer of sweetness and a soft finish. These cookies work well fresh out of the oven or cooled, providing flexibility in serving.
Chilling the dough helps prevent it from sticking to hands during shaping, and using non-stick spray on hands also facilitates this step. This recipe is well suited for chocolate lovers who appreciate a surprise gooey center.
