Salted Caramel Chocolate Chip Cookies

I have been meaning to share this recipe since back in March but I completely forgot about it, better late than never right? I have a huge sweet tooth as many of you  may know by now.  When I first tried out these cookies I was obsessed! I wanted to eat them all and not share any with Rudy haha. Once I got my hands on the recipe I made some for my house and they didn't last three days! Rudy and I both loved them and I even caught my dad taking a couple throughout the day. I'm always telling my friends about these delicious new cookies I've been making and even set some aside for Imelda and she too loved them. A couple days later she even texted me and told me her boyfriend loved them as well and ate almost all of them haha.

This recipe is very easy to make but it is a little more time consuming than the last cookie recipe I shared but so very worth it! I'm so excited to finally share this with you guys and I hope some of you try making it yourself and let me know how you like it.

Ingredients you will need:

- 3 cups of all purpose flower

- 1 teaspoon of baking powder

- 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda

- 1/4 teaspoon of fine salt

- 1 cup of brown sugar

- 1/2 cup of granulated sugar

- 2 sticks of butter, soften

- 2 eggs

- 1 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract (I like to add a little more, 2 teaspoon in total.)

- 3/4 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips

- 1 cup of caramel bits (I like to add a little bit more of this.)

- Flakey sea salt ( A Sea Salt Grinder is the easiest to use.)

*Preheat your oven to 375 degrees

In a large bowl whisk in  your flour, baking powder, baking soda and fine salt together.

In an electric mixer beat your brown sugar, granulated sugar and butter together until it is light and fluffy for about 3 minutes. 

Once its fluffy add one egg at a time making sure that everything is very well mixed together after each addition follow by adding your vanilla extract. 

Add the flour mixture a couple of cups at a time making sure everything is blended well together.

Mix in your chocolate chips and caramel bits.

I find it easiest to use a spoon and scoop out the dough then roll them into balls. I then put them onto a baking tray with plenty of space between each cookies. 

Using a sea salt grinder I then twist the grinder once over top each cookie dough and let bake for about 15 minutes or until golden brown. Rotating the tray will help give the cookies an even coat of that golden brown shade.

This recipe depending on how big I roll the dough usually makes me more than 2 dozen cookies.

These cookies have become one of my favorites to make especially since Rudy and I both love them so much. I think I may actually like this one a little bit more than my best homemade chocolate chip cookie recipe. Feel free to try and make both of these recipes out and let me know which is your favorite.
