Step-by-Step Instructions for Salted Caramel Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In another bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Incorporate the eggs one at a time, and then add the vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.
- Gradually combine the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients until just mixed.

- Scoop rounded dollops of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Sprinkle a little flaky sea salt on top of each cookie dough ball.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until golden brown around the edges and soft in the center.
- Allow to cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
