2 1/2 c. all-purpose or unbleached flour
3/4 c. unsweetened cocoa
1 tsp. baking soda
1 c. sugar
1 c. firmly packed brown sugar
1 c. butter, softened

1 c. chopped pecans

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly spoon flour into measuring cup; level off. In small bowl, combine flour, cocoa, and baking soda; blend well. In large bowl, beat 1 cup sugar, brown sugar, and butter until light and fluffy. Add vanilla and eggs; beat well. Add flour mixture; blend well. Stir in 1/2 cup pecans. For each cookie, with floured hands, shape about 1 tablespoon dough around 1 Rolo, covering completely.

In small bowl, combine remaining 1/2 cup pecans and 1 tablespoon sugar. Press one side of each ball into pecan mixture. Place, nut side up, 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for 7-10 minutes, or until set and slightly cracked. Cool 2 minutes, remove from cookie sheets. Cool completely. Drizzle powdered sugar frosting over cookies. Makes 4 dozen.
