It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
Caramel Filled Cookies
- add review
- #57576
ingredients
2 1/2 cups flour
3/4 cup cocoa
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup butter, softened
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1 cup pecans, finely chopped
48 chocolate covered caramel candies
1 tablespoon sugar
directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
In small bowl, combine flour, cocoa, and baking soda. Mix well. Set aside.
In large bowl, beat the sugars and butter until light and fluffy. Add vanilla and eggs; beat well. Add flour mixture; blend well. Stir in half of the chopped pecans.
For each cookie, with floured hands, shape about 1 Tbsp of dough around a Rolo, covering completely. In small bowl, combine rest of pecans and 1 Tbsp sugar. Press one side of each ball in pecan/sugar mixture. Place nut side up on ungreased cookie sheet, 2 inches apart.
Bake 7 - 10 minutes or until set and slightly cracked. Cool on cookie sheet 2 minutes, then remove and cool completely on wire racks.
cook's notes
1 pkg of Rolo candies has 48 in it. I buy 2 packages to allow for some being eaten during the baking process and because I can manage to get more than 4 dozen cookies out of the dough.

Very nice recipe. I didn't roll the cookies in the pecans but only in the sugar instead.
