    List of Ingredients




    1 cup butter (no substitutes), softened
    1 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar, divided
    1 cup packed brown sugar
    2 eggs
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
    3/4 cup baking cocoa
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1 1/4 cups chopped pecans, divided
    1 package (13 ounces) Rolo candies
    4 squares (1 ounce each) white baking chocolate, melted

    Recipe



    In a mixing bowl, cream butter, 1 cup sugar and brown sugar. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Combine the flour, cocoa and baking soda; gradually add to the creamed mixture, beating just until combined. Stir in 1/2 cup pecans.

    Shape a tablespoonful of dough around each candy, forming a ball. In a small bowl, combine the remaining sugar and pecans; dip each cookie halfway. Place nut side up 2 inches apart on greased baking sheets.
    Bake at 375 degrees for 7-10 minutes or until tops are slightly cracked. Cool for 3 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool completely. Drizzle with melted white chocolate.

    Yield: about 5 dozen.
