  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 and 1/2 cups dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Stir in the dark chocolate chips and caramel bits.
  7. Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to drop dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart.
  8. Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top of each cookie.
  9. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips

  • If you don't have caramel bits, you can use chopped caramel candies or make your own caramel sauce and swirl it into the dough before baking.
  • For a vegan version, use vegan butter and vegan dark chocolate chips.
  • To store the cookies, place them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
