Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a large pizza pan or a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until a dough forms. Do not overmix.
Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, reserving a small handful for topping.
Press the cookie dough evenly onto the prepared pizza pan, forming a large circle about 1/2-inch thick.
Sprinkle the reserved chocolate chips on top of the dough.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set. Remove from the oven and allow the cookie base to cool slightly.
While the cookie base is cooling, make the caramel sauce by melting the soft caramel candies with the heavy cream in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth.
Drizzle the warm caramel sauce over the cookie base, spreading it evenly with the back of a spoon or a spatula.
Optional: Sprinkle sea salt flakes over the caramel for a sweet-and-salty finish.
Slice the caramel chocolate chip pizza into wedges and serve warm. Enjoy!
