Salted Caramel Cookies

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a heavy skillet, heat butter over medium until melted. Constantly swirl or stir the butter until it turns into a lightly golden brown color. Take care to continue swirling/stirring, to prevent burning. Once butter is browned, remove from heat and set aside.
- In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- Mix brown sugar together with warm browned butter until no lumps remain, about 30 seconds with electric mixer. Add egg, yolk, and vanilla to butter mixture, whisking until smooth.
- Slowly add in flour mixture to the butter mixture on medium-low just until fully incorporated. If dough is sticky, cover tightly in plastic wrap and chill in fridge 30 minutes or more.
- Make dough balls about 1 inch round, and place dough balls on lined baking sheet 2 inches apart. Bake about 7 minutes (do not overbake; cookies will be very soft upon removal, but will set as they cool.)
- Immediately upon removing warm cookies from oven, press a caramel kiss into the center of each. Drizzle with warm caramel sauce. Sprinkle lightly with flaky salt.

Notes
- 1 1/2 TB vanilla extract may sound like a lot, but the full amount adds so much depth to these cookies. However, if you prefer to bring it down to 1 or 2 tsp, you can do so.
