ingredients
Steps
Prep and Dough
Preheat your oven to 180°C (160°C fan-assisted) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter with granulated sugar and brown sugar for about 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy. Beat in the large egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
Combine and Bake
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix! Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips. Using a tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving enough space between them. Bake each batch for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Caramel Drizzle and Serve
While the cookies are cooling, prepare the caramel sauce. In a small saucepan, melt the soft caramel candies with the heavy cream over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth and creamy. Let it cool slightly. Drizzle the warm caramel sauce over the cooled chocolate cookie bites. Allow the caramel to set before serving. Enjoy!
Extra Tips
► Do not overbake the cookies to ensure they remain soft and chewy.
► For the caramel sauce, you can use store-bought caramel topping if you want to save time.
► Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature to keep them fresh for several days.
