Note: *You can use colored sprinkles to dip cookies instead of nuts.
In a large bowl, combine the butter, sugar and brown sugar. Add the eggs and vanilla. Mix well.
In another bowl, combine the flour, cocoa, and baking soda. Add this to the creamed mixture and beat just until combined.
Shape about 1 tablespoon of the dough around each piece of candy Rolo.
In a small bowl, combine topping sugar and nuts. Dip each cookie halfway and place with nut side up on an ungreased baking sheet.
