Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup (softened) Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 cup (packed) Brown sugar
- 2 Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 24 (unwrapped) Soft caramel candies
- 1 cup (for drizzle) Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon Vegetable oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, followed by the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
Scoop out about 1.5 tablespoons of dough and flatten it slightly into a disc with your hands.
Place a caramel candy in the center of the disc, then fold the dough around the caramel, fully encasing it. Roll it gently between your palms to form a smooth ball.
Place the dough balls about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are set and slightly cracked on the surface.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
While the cookies are cooling, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips and vegetable oil in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second increments, stirring until smooth.
Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cooled cookies using a spoon or a piping bag.
Allow the drizzle to set at room temperature before serving.
