Deliciously sweet and crunchy cookies featuring salted caramel, chocolate chips, and optional toffee bits or nuts.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup salted caramel candies, chopped
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup toffee bits or chopped nuts (optional)
  • Coarse sea salt for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter alongside the brown and granulated sugars until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Incorporate the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the chopped salted caramel, chocolate chips, and optional toffee bits or nuts.
  7. Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to drop batter onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  8. Lightly sprinkle coarse sea salt on top of each cookie before placing them in the oven.
  9. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden but the centers remain soft.
  10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a couple of minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use room temperature butter for best results.
  • Feel free to customize with your choice of mix-ins.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
