Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1.5 cups chocolate chips
- 0.75 cup soft caramels, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt flakes
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, mix in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
Gently fold in the chocolate chips and chopped caramels using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a medium-sized cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Lightly sprinkle the top of each cookie with a pinch of sea salt flakes.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still slightly soft. Be careful not to overbake, as the cookies will continue to firm up as they cool.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the cookies warm for an ooey-gooey experience, or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
