Ingredients

1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
Pinch of salt
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
½ cup granulated sugar
½ cup brown sugar
1 large egg
1 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet recommended)
Caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Step 3: Add the egg to the butter and sugar mixture and mix until well combined.
Step 4: Gradually add the flour, baking soda, and salt, stirring until just combined. Avoid over-mixing.
Step 5: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart to allow spreading.
Step 6: Bake for 10–12 minutes, until the edges turn golden brown. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 7: Once cooled, spread a layer of caramel sauce evenly over each cookie.
Step 8: Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Drizzle or pour the melted chocolate over the caramel layer.
Step 9: Let the cookies sit at room temperature until the chocolate sets, or refrigerate for about 30 minutes for quicker setting.

Tips & Variations

Chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking to achieve thicker cookies.
Allow the caramel to cool slightly before spreading to get a chewier texture.
Try different kinds of chocolate such as dark or white chocolate, or sprinkle sea salt on top for added flavor.

Storage

Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. For longer storage, freeze them for up to three months, separating layers with parchment paper to prevent sticking. When ready to enjoy, thaw at room temperature or warm briefly in the microwave for a freshly baked taste.

How to Serve

The chocolate layer is finished with a sprinkling of coarse sea salt crystals that add texture and sparkle. The white marbled surface beneath the plate creates a clean and bright setting. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7
