Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 cups minus 2 tablespoons cake flour 8 1/2 ounces
  • 1 ⅔ cups bread flour 8 1/2 ounces
  • 1 ¼ teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 ¼ cups unsalted butter
  • 1 ¼ cups light brown sugar 10 ounces
  • 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar 8 ounces
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 bag bag dark or semi-sweet chocolate chips 10 ounces
  • 1 heaping cup Kraft Caramel Bits OR 1 (9-ounce) bag caramel baking chips (we used Nestle) (see note below)
  • Flaky sea salt for topping

Instructions

  1. Sift flours, baking soda, baking powder and salt into a bowl. Set aside.
  2. Using a mixer fitted with paddle attachment, cream butter and sugars together until very light, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla.
  4. Reduce speed to low, add dry ingredients and mix until just combined, 5 to 10 seconds.
  5. Add in chocolate chips and caramel chips and mix on low speed until just combined.
  6. Press plastic wrap against dough and refrigerate for 24 to 36 hours. Dough may be used in batches, and can be refrigerated for up to 72 hours.
  7. When ready to bake, remove the dough from the refrigerator and allow it to sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
  8. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a nonstick baking mat. Set aside.
  9. Scoop 6 2-ounce mounds of dough (about the size of golf balls) onto baking sheet. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt and bake until golden brown but still soft, 14-16 minutes.
  10. Transfer sheet to a wire rack for 10 minutes, then slip cookies onto another rack to cool a bit more.
  11. Repeat with remaining dough, or reserve dough, refrigerated, for baking remaining batches the next day.

Notes

  • The Kraft caramel bits will harden a bit after the cookies cool, but do have a more realistic caramel flavor than the baking chips.
  • For regular sized cookies, use a heaping tablespoon and bake for approximately 8-10 minutes.
  • Adapted from the New York Times chocolate chip cookies.
