Ingredients
Scale
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup caramel candies, unwrapped
1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth.
Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Take a tablespoon of dough, flatten it in your hand, and place a caramel candy in the center. Wrap the dough around the caramel and roll it into a ball.
Place the cookie balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For an extra touch, sprinkle sea salt on top of the cookies before baking.
Store cookies in an airtight container to keep them fresh.
