These salted caramel cookies are ridiculously easy to make. Stuffed with caramels these brown butter flavoured cookies ooze with molten caramel lava in every bite.
Simple cookies are one thing but stuffed cookies are a game changer, you guys! It’s like the best of both worlds sandwiched into one. Imagine biting into a cookie thinking its just a plain old cookie and then realising that it clearly isn’t? Like what you see? Yeah, that’s what I’m talking about!
You can basically stuff the whole wide world inside a cookie! Like chocolate? Stuff it in! In this case, I’ve done the deed with butter toffees or what is more commonly known worldwide as soft – chewy caramels.
These cookies are so special to me because I literally fell in love with them right at the first bite! Seriously, I’m not even kidding! I wanted an oozy shot for the cookies so you could legit feel what I was feeling at that time! This oozy shot that you see in the photos is literally my second attempt because when I did it the first time, I straight out went to take a bite and then before I knew it, I’d lost all sense of my will power and the cookie was gone! Like completely demolished!
I know that these caramels by themselves are irresistible, right? Wrong! I have one more weapon that’ll make you weak in the knees and I guarantee you’ll be making these immediately. I’ve also added brown butter to these! what!!!!???
Oh yeah! These salted caramel cookies are bold and fearless and they have a personality of their own. I warn you though, it’s going to be very difficult to resist these once they’re in front of you! The bets thing to do is quickly gobble up one and give the rest away before the guilt trip begins!
Brown butter and caramels are such a sinful combination, they’re the perfect partners in crime. The nutty, bitter butter complements the buttery caramel so darn perfectly, it’s a shame they don’t get as much credit as they should! But you don’t be one of those people who ignores this combination.
Also, in this recipe for the salted caramel cookies, I’ve used salted butter as my salty element. However, if you use unsalted, you can add a tiny pinch of salt to the dry ingredients.
