Ingredients

Method

  1. Whisk flour, salt, and baking soda in a small bowl; set aside.
  2. Melt the butter in a bowl, add both sugars, and whisk until no lumps remain. Add eggs and vanilla and whisk until sugars dissolve.
  3. Fold the dry ingredients into the butter mixture until combined, then fold in the chocolate and caramel. Leave the dough to hydrate for 5-10 minutes if too runny.
  4. Place racks in upper and lower thirds of oven; preheat to 190 C (170 C fan-forced). Line 2 trays with baking paper.
  5. Portion mixture into 2 tbsp sized balls onto the trays. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden around the edges.

Notes

I designed this recipe after many trials with different caramel techniques and different cookie recipes. I will continue to update this recipe as I bake and refine it.
