Day 3 of the 12 days of Christmas: Rolo Cookie Cups
My family has their traditional Christmas cookies that we make every year. From Italian Anise Cookies to Pizzelles, we have this cookie making business down pat. But those aren’t the only cookies we make on our annual Cookie Day.
Another family favorite is Rolo Cookie Cups. I am not sure when we started making these but everyone looks forward to them as much as the Italian Anise Cookies. My mom found this recipe in an old cookbook (and I wish I knew the name!) and have become a staple to our Christmas baking extravaganza. While we wait for the Anise cookies to cool, we whip up 4 batches (yeah, four!).
The only hard part to this recipe? Keeping people from eating the unwrapped Rolos while we wait for the cookies to bake! Someone, every year, will sneak a Rolo and we will be short one. Never fails!
