Description
Gooey cookies filled with rich chocolate chips and luscious salted caramel.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 cup chocolate chips (dark or semi-sweet)
- 1/2 cup caramel sauce
- 1 tsp sea salt (for sprinkling)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Cream the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar in a large mixing bowl until creamy and fluffy.

- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and a pinch of sea salt.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients until just combined.

- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden and centers look soft.
- Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
