Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 1/4 cups (280 grams) all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup (170 grams) unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup (220 grams) brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup (100 grams) granulated sugar
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 cup caramel chunks
Leavening and Seasoning:
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Flavor Enhancer:
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350F (175C) and prepare baking sheets with parchment paper for even cookie placement.
- Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in a mixing bowl, ensuring dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Cream butter with brown and granulated sugars using an electric mixer until light and airy, creating a smooth base.
- Incorporate eggs individually into the butter-sugar mixture, mixing thoroughly after each addition.
- Blend in vanilla extract to enhance overall flavor profile.
- Slowly integrate dry ingredient mixture into wet ingredients, stirring until just combined to prevent overmixing.
- Gently fold white chocolate chips and caramel chunks throughout the dough, distributing evenly for consistent flavor.
- Scoop rounded spoonfuls of cookie dough onto prepared baking sheets, leaving adequate space between each portion.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, watching for golden edges and slightly soft centers as indicators of perfect doneness.
- Transfer cookies to wire cooling racks, allowing them to set and develop a crisp exterior while maintaining a soft interior.
Notes
- Ensure butter is softened at room temperature for smooth, creamy mixing without lumps.
- Chill dough for 30 minutes before baking to prevent excessive spreading and maintain thick, chewy cookie shape.
- Use high-quality white chocolate and homemade caramel chunks for more intense, rich flavor profile.
- Gluten-free option: Replace all-purpose flour with a 1:1 gluten-free baking blend for celiac-friendly cookies.
