Inspired by a combination of two cookies prepared at this year's National Cookie Challenge, here's my take on the ultimate chocolate chip cookie!

Time 30m

Yield 30 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 15

3/4 cup unsalted butter
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar
2 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon chocolate extract
1 tablespoon real maple syrup
2 tablespoons cream
2 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (chopped, I use Ghiradelli)
30 chocolate-covered caramel candies (Rollo or Hershey's)
1 cup rolled oats (Quaker Oatmeal Original, dry)
1 cup raw macadamia nuts (toasted & chopped)

Steps:

  • Cream butter & sugars in large mixing bowl. Add eggs, extracts, syrup, and cream.
  • In another bowl, sift and mix flour, baking soda and salt. Stir in chocolate chips, oats, and toasted nuts. Fold dry ingredients into butter mixture.
  • Chill dough for 1 hour. Preheat oven to 350 and PLACE A PIECE OF PARCHMENT PAPER ONTO YOUR COOKIE SHEET.
  • Place a heaping tablespoon of dough into palm of your hand, and press one chocolate covered caramel candy into center of each piece of dough. Wrap dough around candy, covering completely.
  • Bake cookies for 14-16 minutes, until lightly browned. Cool in pan until well set, then onto rack. Don't eat hot, as caramel is LAVA-like 8-).
  • Serve with *plenty* of milk.

The cookies were a little dry, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try adding some more butter next time.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I've made these cookies several times and they're always a favorite. They're gooey, chocolatey, and have the perfect amount of sweetness. I love adding a little extra salt to the top before baking for a salty-sweet flavor.
