I'm not normally a sweets person, but these cookies might change that. My sister made them a few weeks ago, and it was all I could do not to eat them all at once! The salted caramel brings out the sweetness of the chocolate (one of my school friends actually lightly salts all of her cookies and brownies for that very reason!). So next time you're in the mood for some phenomenal cookies, give these a try.
Salted Caramel Dar Chocolate Chunk Cookies: the "LA" cookie
Ingredients:
2 sticks of butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated (white) sugar
1 cup packed light brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 1/2 tablespoons vanilla extract
1/4 cup caramel sauce (I recommend buying this unless you're brave)
3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
12 ounce bag mini chocolate chips
1 1/2 cups chopped good quality chocolate (don't skimp!)
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Using a stand or electric mixer, beat the butter and brown and granulated (white) sugar until well combined. Beat in the eggs and vanilla, followed by the caramel sauce until well combined.
Mix the flour, salt, and baking soda in a large bowl. Slowly add this mixture to the wet ingredients, then add the mini chocolate chips.
Place 1/4 cup-sized balls of cookie dough on your baking sheet (they will be big cookies!). Sprinkle a pinch or two of salt over the cookies, and press a few chocolate chunks into the top of each ball of dough.
Bake for 12-15 minutes (or slightly less for deliciously chewy cookies), or until just golden around the edges. Remove and let cool.
