These cookies were SO fun and easy to throw together. They are best enjoyed warm, since the caramel is made to firm up once it cools down!

Caramel-Stuffed Double Chocolate Cookies
Fudgey, gooey caramel centered chocolate goodness.
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- ½ cup white sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 3 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup special dark cocoa powder, unsweetened
- 1 tsp baking soda
- large pinch of salt
- 1 cup mini semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips
- 1 bag Kraft Soft Caramels
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, beat the butter until light and fluffy. Add sugars and beat again until combined.
- Add eggs and vanilla extract. Beat well.
- Add flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. Mix to combine.
- Add chocolate chips. Stir gently.
- Form the dough into balls of desired size (I did about ping-pong sized balls). Using your index finger, poke a hole into the center (but not all the way through!) and place an entire caramel inside. then reform the dough around the caramel, making sure its in the center.
- Place cookies on the prepared baking sheet about 1-2 inches apart. Bake for 12-13 minutes at 350°F.
- Remove from oven. Allow to cool for 1-2 minutes before enjoying warm!
