1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup caramel bits
1/2 cup caramel sauce
Flaky sea salt, for topping
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment.
2. Cream butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla.
3. Whisk flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Add to wet mixture.
4. Fold in caramel bits.
5. Scoop dough onto baking sheets, bake 10–12 minutes until golden.

Notes
Chill dough for thicker cookies. Use parchment to prevent sticking. Sprinkle salt while caramel is warm so it adheres. Swap caramel bits for toffee or chocolate chips for variety.
