Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup salted caramel bits or caramel sauce
  • Sea salt for sprinkling on top

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your baking sheets with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  • Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time and then stir in the vanilla extract until well combined.
  • Mix Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
  • Fold in Chocolate and Caramel: Gently fold in the chocolate chips and salted caramel bits, ensuring an even distribution throughout the dough.
  • Scoop the Dough: Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  • Add a Sprinkle of Sea Salt: Before baking, sprinkle a little sea salt on top of each cookie dough ball for that perfect salted caramel finish.
  • Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden and the centers look slightly underbaked.
  • Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
