Ingredients

Scale

Cookie Dough:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour, heat-treated
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

Chocolate Coating and Filling:

  • 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips or chocolate melting wafers
  • 1/2 cup thick caramel sauce
  • Flaky sea salt for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Cream the Butter and Sugars: In a medium bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  2. Mix in Wet Ingredients: Add the milk and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture, mixing until smooth.
  3. Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in the heat-treated flour and salt until fully combined. Fold in the mini chocolate chips.
  4. Prepare the Cups: Line a mini muffin tin with paper liners. Melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in the microwave and coat each liner with a teaspoon of melted chocolate. Chill to set.
  5. Fill the Cups: Roll the cookie dough into small balls and press them into the chocolate-lined cups. Fill with caramel sauce and cover with more melted chocolate.
  6. Chill and Serve: Sprinkle with sea salt and refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
  • Heat-treat your flour by baking it at 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes to make it safe for raw consumption.
