Ingredients
For the cookies:
- 1 cup butter softened
- 1 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 3/4 cups flour
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
For the coating:
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
For the stuffing:
- 12 soft caramel candies
Instructions
- With an electric mixer cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in egg and vanilla and mix until combined.
- In a separate bowl combine dry ingredients - flour, baking powder and salt, and mix to combine.
- Slowly add flour mixture to butter mixture, mixing well between each addition. NOTE: The dough should not be sticky and should not be crumbly. If it is sticky, mix in flour one tablespoon at a time until it becomes not sticky. If the mixture is crumbly, mix in water one teaspoon at a time until the dough holds together.
- Mix cinnamon and sugar together and place in a shallow bowl.
- Measure dough with a 1/4 cup measure. Divide the dough in half, placing a caramel in between the layers and then press the edges back together so that there are no cracks. The final shape should be a thick disc. Roll each disc to coat well in the cinnamon sugar mixture and place on a cookie sheet lined with a silpat liner or parchment paper.
- Bake at 350˚F for 12-15 minutes or until the center is just set. Let cool 2 minutes then cool on a wire rack. Enjoy!
