Description

These Chocolate Chip Caramel Cookies are the ultimate indulgent treat for cookie lovers. Combining classic chocolate chip cookie dough with chunks of unwrapped caramels and toasted nuts, each bite offers a perfect balance of textures: crisp edges, a soft chewy center, and pockets of warm, sticky sweetness. The addition of both white sugar and brown sugar creates a deep, rich flavor profile, while the butter ensures a tender crumb. They are perfect for holiday baking, potlucks, or simply enjoying with a cold glass of milk on a rainy afternoon. The caramels melt slightly during baking, creating a gooey interior that pairs beautifully with the semi-sweet chocolate chips.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375&# 194;°F (190ðC).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, cream the butter, white sugar, and firmly packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
  5. Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, beating on low speed until just combined.
  6. Stir in the chocolate chips, coarsely chopped caramels, and chopped nuts until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto ungreased or parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers still look slightly soft.
  9. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes to firm up, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
