Categories     Dessert

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup Butter ((lightly softened))
1 cup Dark Brown Sugar
1/2 cup Sugar
1 large Egg
1 large Egg Yolk
1 teaspoon Vanilla
1/4 cup High-Quality Caramel Sauce ((plus more for drizzling on cookies))
2 1/2 cups Flour
1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
3/4 teaspoon Baking Soda
1 teaspoon Salt
Sea Salt Flakes ((optional to sprinkle on the top))

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 390 degrees (unless you are chilling your dough). In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and sugar for at least 4 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl often.
  • Add egg, egg yolk, and vanilla and mix for 1 minute longer. Stir in caramel.
  • Fold in flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. If sprinkling sea salt flakes on the top of cookies, reduce salt to 1/2 teaspoon. If you have time, I suggest chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes. This reduces the spreading of the cookies. I suggest a 24-hour chill time, if you can wait.
  • If possible, use a light-colored baking sheet. Roll cookies into light balls and place on parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Bake for 8-11 minutes or until lightly golden on the sides. Remove from the oven and let set up for several minutes.
  • Drizzle caramel all over each cookie before serving. If so desired, sprinkle with sea salt flakes.

SALTED CARAMEL COOKIES



Salted Caramel Cookies image

These soft and buttery cookies get dressed up with a thin layer of salted caramel and a dusting of flaky sea salt for good measure. Using store-bought caramels makes the process especially easy and ensures that the coating has some satisfying chew to it. Be sure to err on the side of under-baking the cookies, so they remain soft and tender.

Categories     cookies and bars, dessert

Time 1h20m

Yield 20 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 cup/170 grams unsalted butter (1 1/2 sticks), at room temperature
1 cup/220 grams light brown sugar
1 large egg
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups/255 grams all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
8 ounces/225 grams store-bought soft caramels, unwrapped
2 tablespoons heavy cream
Flaky sea salt

Steps:

  • Position oven racks near the center and heat the oven to 375 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla and mix until well combined, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
  • Add the flour, baking soda and fine sea salt and mix until fully incorporated. Scrape the dough out of the bowl and divide it in half. Wrap each piece in plastic wrap, patting into a 1-inch-thick disk. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  • Scoop the dough into 1 1/2-tablespoon-size portions (you should have about 20). Using your hands, roll the dough into balls and place on the baking sheets, staggering dough and leaving about 2 1/2 inches between pieces.
  • Wipe the bottom of a glass with a damp towel and use it to press the cookies flat (they should be about 1/3-inch thick).
  • Bake the cookies, rotating the sheets halfway through baking, until the edges are golden brown, 9 to 11 minutes. Let cool completely.
  • Place the unwrapped caramels and cream in a microwave-safe bowl or liquid measuring cup. Microwave the mixture for 30 to 45 seconds and stir well. Continue to microwave in 15-second increments until the caramels are fully melted and smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. (You could also do this on the stovetop in a small saucepan over medium-low heat.)
  • Once the cookies have cooled completely, spoon a generous teaspoon of caramel into the center of each cookie. Spread the caramel evenly over the surface, leaving a 1/4-inch uncoated edge. Sprinkle flaky sea salt on top.
  • If the caramel becomes too thick as you work, reheat in the microwave in 15-second increments, stirring in between, or over medium-low heat on the stovetop, until fluid.
  • Let the cookies cool at room temperature until the caramel sets, about 15 minutes, before serving.

  • Be sure to chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
