Ingredients
Scale
1 cup of all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
1/4 teaspoon of salt
1/2 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup of granulated sugar
1/2 cup of unsalted butter, softened
1 large egg
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
1/2 cup of salted caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
1/2 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips
Flaky sea salt for sprinkling
Instructions
Preheat the oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (180°C). This helps your treats bake evenly.
Mix dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and unsweetened cocoa powder.
Cream butter and sugar: In a separate large bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the egg and vanilla: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
Incorporate the dry mix: Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until a chocolate dough forms.
Fold in chocolate chips: Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Shape the pillows: Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, and use your thumb to create an indentation.
Add the caramel: Spoon a dollop of salted caramel sauce into the indentation and seal with dough.
Bake: Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes until edges are set but centers remain soft.
Sprinkle with sea salt: Sprinkle flaky sea salt on top of each cookie while they're warm.
Cool and enjoy: Allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
