Description

Deliciously chewy cookies with a perfect blend of sweet caramel and a sprinkle of sea salt, ideal for any occasion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup caramel candies, chopped
  • 1/2 cup sea salt for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and creamy.
  3. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt in another bowl. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients until just combined.
  5. Fold in the chopped caramel candies.
  6. Drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  7. Sprinkle a little sea salt on top of each cookie.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the centers look soft.
  9. Allow to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

For added flavor, consider drizzling melted chocolate on top or adding nuts for a crunch.
