Ingredients
  

For the Cookies
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened Ensure it's Halal-certified.
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups chocolate chips (semisweet or milk chocolate)
For the Caramel
  • 1 cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Beat together until the mixture is light and fluffy—about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Crack in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add in the vanilla extract and blend until fully incorporated.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix!
  5. Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
Baking
  1. Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop heaping portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
  2. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the centers are set but slightly soft.
  3. Once the cookies are out of the oven, allow them to cool slightly. Drizzle warm caramel sauce over each cookie, letting it melt slightly into the warm dough.
Cooling
  1. Allow the cookies to cool completely on the baking sheet. They can be enjoyed warm or stored for later.

Notes

For a Halal-friendly alternative, substitute regular butter with non-dairy options like coconut oil or plant-based butter. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week or freeze for up to three months. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-7 minutes to regain softness.
