Preparation

Step 1

1 Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 32 mini muffin cups with cooking spray.

2 Remove cookie dough rounds from tray; break each in half. Place half cookie dough round in each muffin cup. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.

3 Using end of wooden spoon, carefully press into center of each baked cookie to make 1-inch-wide indentation.

4 In medium microwavable bowl, microwave caramels and water on High 1 minute. Stir; repeat until caramels are completely melted and can be stirred smooth.

5 Fill each cookie cup with about 1 tablespoon melted caramels. Gently cover with plastic wrap. Let stand at room temperature about 1 hour or until set.

6 When caramel filling is set, sprinkle a few granules of coarse sea salt on top of each.
