Rolo Cookies

There are many recipes for these cookies floating around. These are my own version and I think they're the most moist and easy to make. You'll just have to make sure you don't eat all the Rolos before you make the cookies. :)

2 ¼ cup flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup butter/margarine softened
¼ cup sugar
¾ cup light brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1 small pkg instant chocolate pudding
2 eggs
Approximately 36 Rolo pieces, unwrapped

Mix flour with baking soda in separate bowl. In large bowl, combine butter, sugars, vanilla, and pudding. Beat until smooth and creamy. Add eggs. Gradually add flour mixture. Let chill in refrigerator for at least an hour. Roll medium to small amount of cookie dough around each Rolo. Place on greased cookie sheet. Bake 10 minutes at 350. Let sit on cookie sheet for a couple of minutes to let the caramel set up. Then place on wire rack to cool.

Makes about 3 dozen.
