These white chocolate turtle cookies are a simple and delicious dessert to make. They're crunchy, delicate and pop-able, which makes for one sweet reward.
Ingredients
- 2-1/2 cups flour
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup pecans, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 48 Rolo candies, unwrapped
- 4 ounces vanilla almond bark
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- In a small bowl, mix together flour, cocoa, baking soda and cinnamon. When fully mixed, set aside. In a large bowl, combine butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add vanilla and mix well. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add flour mixture in three additions, blending well. Stir in 1/2 cup chopped pecans.
- In a small bowl, mix remaining 1/2 cup chopped pecans and one tablespoon granulated sugar, whisking lightly.
- With a 1-inch scoop, portion out a heaping tablespoon of dough; wrap the dough entirely around one Rolo candy, covering it completely. Dip cookie ball into pecan/sugar mixture on one side.
- With the "nut-side" up, place cookies at least 2-inches apart on cookie sheets lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Bake for eight to nine minutes or until set. Let cookies cool for a few minutes on cookie sheets before moving. Remove to a wire rack and cool completely.
- Break vanilla almond bark into pieces and place in a microwave-safe container. Microwave on high for 30 seconds. Check and stir well; continue to cook in 15-second intervals until chocolate is melted and smooth. Drizzle over cooled cookies. Allow 15 minutes for chocolate to harden and serve.
