Caramel Sandwich Cookies

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

   Tip: Optional: Use a silicone mat for easy cleanup.

2. 2

   In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

   Tip: Make sure to sift the dry ingredients for a lighter cookie.

3. 3

   In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together butter and sugars until light and fluffy.

   Tip: Beat for 2-3 minutes to ensure the mixture is smooth and well combined.

4. 4

   Beat in eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla extract.

   Tip: Make sure each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.

5. 5

   Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just combined.

   Tip: Be careful not to overmix, as this can lead to tough cookies.

6. 6

   Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.

   Tip: Use a cookie scoop or spoon to ensure even-sized cookies.

7. 7

   Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden brown.

   Tip: Keep an eye on the cookies during the last 2 minutes to prevent overbaking.

8. 8

   Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

   Tip: This will help the cookies retain their shape and prevent breakage.
