Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup soft caramel candies, chopped
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • Flaky sea salt (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and mix until smooth.
  4. Gradually combine the dry ingredients with the wet mixture until a soft dough forms. If it’s too crumbly, add heavy cream one tablespoon at a time.
  5. Take about a tablespoon of dough, flatten it in your hand, place chopped caramel in the center, fold over, and roll into a ball.
  6. Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet with space between them. Bake for 15-20 minutes until edges are set but centers remain soft.
  7. Allow cooling for about 10 minutes before serving.
