Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 28 chewy caramels, unwrapped
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. In a stand mixer, beat the butter, peanut butter, and sugars until creamed. Scrape the edges of the bowl, add the eggs to the mixer and beat until well mixed. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Sift together or stir using a whisk to get rid of any lumps. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the mixer, occasionally scraping down the sides of the bowl, and mix until it forms a soft dough. Add the chocolate chips and mix on the lowest setting until they’re scattered throughout. Roll a rounded teaspoon of dough into a ball and then flatten with your hands. Place the dough round onto a lined cookie sheet and place a caramel in the center of it. Place another rounded tablespoon of flattened dough on top of the caramel and press down on the edges of the cookie to close the seam so the caramel doesn’t leak out when baking. Set the cookies 2 inches apart on the cookie sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown. Let cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a rack to cool completely.
