SHE Bakes: White Chocolate Caramel Cookies

Tuesday, February 7, 2017

Hey Ya’ll! Over Christmas I discovered my new favorite cookie recipe – white chocolate chip with caramel cookies. The caramel balances out the white chocolate so they aren’t too sweet; plus, it makes the cookies slightly chewy. I could probably eat the entire batch by myself!

To start, preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Then mix ¾ cup of softened butter with ½ granulated sugar and ¾ cup brown sugar with a hand or stand mixer. Once the mixture is creamy, add one egg and 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract and set aside.

Now, in a separate bowl, combine your dry ingredients. First take 2 cups all-purpose flour, and then add 1 teaspoon of baking soda, ½ teaspoon of salt, and 2 teaspoons of cornstarch. Stir well and add to the wet ingredients. Be careful to add the flour slowly to not have it fly all over your kitchen! Once your batter is formed, fold in 1 cup white chocolate chips and 1 cup of caramel bits.

To form cookies, take a spoonful of dough and roll into a ball (gumball size) and place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. The dough should yield 36-42 cookies. Once all of the cookies have been formed, place in a freezer for 10 minutes to allow them to set.

After 10 minutes, remove the dough from the freezer and bake for 8-10 minutes. If you decide you only need 12 cookies instead of 36, place the remaining cookie dough in a freezer bag and bake at a later date!

I hope you enjoy!
