Description

If you are a fan of cookies, these are the ones to make. Large salted caramel cookies – crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside. Oh did I mention delicious already?! ;)


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup (115g) butter, melted and cooled to room temperature
  • 1/2 cup (200g) cane sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1 1/3 cups (180g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 5.3 oz. (150g) soft caramels
  • flaky sea salt

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter (either in a small pot on the stove or in the microwave) and let cool down again. Cut the soft caramels into dices.
  2. Add the sugar and melted butter to a large bowl and mix for about 1-2 minutes until the mixture gets creamy and light. Add the egg and mix in well. Add the vanilla extract and mix in. Mix the flour with baking soda, and salt and add to the bowl. Mix until just combined. Add the caramel pieces and fold in. Place the dough in the fridge for at least 30-45 minutes.
  3. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with baking parchment. Use a cookie scoop or two tablespoons and place dough balls (about 2 tbsp. each) with enough space (about 1.5 in/4cm) on the baking sheet and sprinkle with some sea salt flakes. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Take out of the oven and let cool down on the baking sheet until you can move the cookies, then transfer to a wire rack and let cool down completely.
