Chocolate Caramel Cookies

Chocolate and Caramel Cookies.  The perfect combination of salty-ness, chocolate and creamy caramel. These are on my favorites list for sure.   Have an awesome weekend!

Chocolate Caramel Cookies
recipe makes about 3 dozen

2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1/2 cups cocoa
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter, at room temperature
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 (3.2 ounce) box instant chocolate pudding mix
1 package Rolo’s Chocolate Candies

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt. Set aside. Using a mixer, cream the butter and sugars. Slowly add the eggs and vanilla. Slowly add the pudding mix and mix until smooth. Gradually add the dry ingredients until well incorporated. Chill the dough for about 30 minutes in the fridge. Using an ice cream scoop, scoop equal balls of dough and place one rolo in the center of the dough. Cover and roll into a smooth ball. Place cookie dough balls onto cookie sheets lined with parchment paper and bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes. Don’t overbake.

Hint: If you don’t have the pudding mix, don’t fret, just go without it.  I like to use it in my cookie doughs only because I love the texture it brings.  It makes for a more substantial cookie.  My opinion only of course.  Every one has their own.  :)

Enjoy!

  1. Reading your blog is not good for my diet! I had a friend make a similar cookie for a cookie exchange one time. The cookies were peanut butter, but I’m thinking I could get into the chocolate cookies even more.

  2. Oh… these sound lush. I wonder what I could substitute for Instant Chocolate Pudding mix, I can’t find that animal here in La Belle France! Must Google Instant Pudding Mix substitutions then give this a try! :D

    Maybe it’s just me, but your instructions regarding the cookie scoop are a little vague…I’m not exactly sure what I’m supposed to do, but I’m going to give these a try! I can’t wait to taste one :)

  5. These look awesome, I can’t wait to try them. I’m a fool for caramel! Oh, and chocolate too.
