Ingredients
  

For the Batter
  • 1 cup Butter Adds richness and moisture; for dairy-free, substitute with margarine.

  • 2 large Eggs Binds the ingredients; for vegan option, use flaxseed meal mixed with water.

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (2-3 minutes).
  3. Beat in eggs and vanilla extract until fully combined for 1-2 minutes.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually mix into creamy batter until incorporated.
  5. Gently fold in caramel bits with a spatula until evenly distributed.
  6. Cover and chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  7. Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 12-14 minutes until edges are golden and centers appear slightly underbaked.
  9. Sprinkle sea salt on warm cookies as soon as they come out of the oven.
  10. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
