Steps:
- Heat oven to 350°F. Stir together flour and baking soda; set aside. Reserve 1 cup of the mashed potatoes (dry). Microwave butter in large microwavable bowl uncovered on High until melted. Stir in sugars, flour mixture, vanilla, eggs, remaining 2 cups mashed potatoes (dry) and the nuts. Let dough stand 5 minutes.
- Shape dough into 1-inch balls; roll balls in reserved mashed potatoes (dry), pressing firmly so potatoes stick to balls. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet.

Steps:
- Make the caramel crunch: Line a rimmed baking sheet with a nonstick baking mat; set aside. In a small saucepan, combine sugar and 1 1/2 tablespoons water; mixture should look like wet sand. Place saucepan over medium-high heat and cook until sugar is dark amber in color. Immediately pour caramel onto prepared baking sheet; let cool completely.
- Crack cooled caramel into large pieces and place in a resealable plastic bag. Crush into tiny pieces using a rolling pin; you should have a scant 1/2 cup of caramel crunch.
Tips:
- Use a digital kitchen scale to accurately measure ingredients. This will ensure the best results.
- Use high-quality butter and brown sugar. This will give the cookies a richer flavor.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will prevent the cookies from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool completely before enjoying them. This will allow the flavors to develop.
Conclusion:
These crunchy caramel cookies are the perfect treat for any occasion. They're easy to make and always a hit with friends and family. With their chewy texture, gooey caramel center, and crunchy topping, these cookies are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.
