Don't give up there is a few tricks to these! (1) With the 30oz roll of cookie dough, double the ingredients and it will make 36 "just smaller than golf ball" sized balls to freeze. (2) When you take the dough balls out of the freezer use a knife to cut them in half, use one thumb on each half to imprint a spot for the carmel, makes it easier to wrap the carmel. (3) Use ungreased parchment paper on your cookie sheets (I use heavy / rimmed baking sheets), and I go the full 14" time to bake. (4) Let the cookies cool completely ON THE SHEETS once they come out of the oven... don't touch them (l

I also had trouble with these cookies. The dough was too sticky and hard to handle and the caramel melted out the sides of the cookies on many of them. I have a recipe that has a dough made from scratch with peanut butter cups inside, I think I'm going to try that dough and use the Rolos, because I really like the chocolate/caramel combination. I gave the recipe a "2" for flavor.

I have tried these cookies twice, and after the last time,I threw the recipe away. The dough was very sticky and hard to work with, and the caramel melted out of over half of the cookies. Enough said!

I thought I would give these a try since they looked sooooo good! While they do taste good all of the caramel came out of the cookies. All but 4 of the cookies completely fell apart. I didn't even bother making the topping.

Sorry, these cookies were a lot of work and the taste was not worth all the effort. They were just ok.

My daughter who loves to bake made this recipe. It was so good that she got requests from others to make it again. It really was Delicious!

My husband and I love this recipe. We made it for several Christmas events and we were the hit of them all. Everyone who tried these cookies raved about them. They are so good.

What a waste of time! I made these before Christmas just to try them out. Glad I did. Waste of time and money. Way too many steps and too sticky to handle. The rolos were good by themselves though LOL. Had a couple of people try them and said they were nothing special. Would definitely not recommend. Too bad there is not a zero star rating. I guess the one star can be for the rolo candies.

Question? Has anyone made this in a cookie/brownie bar form? A layer of the cookie dough, a layer of the rolos and then another layer of the cookie dough on top? Just wondering if that would work instead of rolling them into balls?

After baking and tasting both of them, I recommend the Rolos over Milk Duds. The Milk Duds melted too much and were much messier to try and get out of the pan. The Rolos held up pretty well. Also, the Rolo caramel was nicer inside the cookie.
