Instructions
Preparation Steps
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper. Next, in a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter until it becomes a lovely golden brown, swirling it occasionally to avoid burning. Let it cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar and granulated sugar, then pour in the cooled brown butter too. Beat the mix until it’s creamy and smooth. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing again until well integrated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips and salted caramel gently.
Scoop about a tablespoon of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them a couple of inches apart. Bake for about 10-12 minutes or until golden brown at the edges but still soft in the center.
Allow the cookies to cool on the sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy these delightful cookies warm or at room temperature!
Notes
These cookies are best enjoyed fresh, but you can store them in an airtight container for a few days!
