This salted caramel, chocolate chip cookies are my favorites! They are thick, soft, and packed with caramel. I love the combination of sweet with a bit of salty taste of these cookies.
These chewy, soft, and thick cookies fly super fast! I always make sure to whip up a big batch. These cookies are stuffed with gooey caramel and topped with crunchy coarse salt. Rich and buttery caramel-y cookies that are seriously addicting!
Ingredients
1 c. unsalted butter, softened
3 c. all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 ¾ c. brown sugar
¼ c. white sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp coarse salt
18 unwrapped caramel candies (like Werther’s®), each cut into 6 pieces
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 c. chocolate chips
HOW TO MAKE SALTED CARAMEL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
Ready the oven. Preheat it to 175 degrees C or 350 degrees F.
Place the baking soda, flour, and salt in a medium mixing bowl. Mix well until blended.
Place the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar in a different mixing bowl. Using an electric mixer, beat until well mixed.
Slowly add the eggs, then the vanilla extract. Mix until creamy.
Into the butter mixture, transfer the flour mixture. Mix well, then fold in the chocolate chips.
Cut and shape the dough into balls, then arrange them on the prepared baking sheet, making sure to leave about an inch of space between each cookie dough.
On top of each cookie, place 3 slices of caramel.
Bake the cookie dough in the preheated oven for about 13 to 15 minutes or until the cookies are golden brown.
Take the cookies out of the oven when done and allow them to sit at room temperature on the baking sheet to cool before serving. Enjoy!
Note:
I like the result of adding the caramels before baking better than mixing them with the dough.
