Double-Chocolate Rolo Cookies with Pretzels

These chocolate Rolo cookies were a big hit with my father. The generous size makes them wonderful for gift-giving, and they're always the first to go at parties.

Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup sugar
1 large egg, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
2/3 cup baking cocoa
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup (6 ounces) Rolo candies, halved
1/2 cup coarsely crushed pretzels
1/2 cup coarsely chopped pecans

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Beat in egg and vanilla. In another bowl, whisk flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt; gradually beat into creamed mixture. Stir in Rolos, pretzels and pecans.

Drop dough by 1/4 cupfuls 2 in. apart onto parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake until cookies look crackled, 12-14 minutes.

Allow cookies to cool completely on pans. Store between pieces of waxed paper in an airtight container.
