Instructions

  • First, preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line 2 baking pans with parchment paper.
  • Using a mixer, beat cubes of cold butter with sugars. Beat 2 to 3 minutes until butter is mixed in well.
  • Add eggs and vanilla extract. Continue mixing to combine.
  • Add in flour, baking soda and salt. Dough should be thick and mixed together with no flour streaks
  • Mix in chocolate chips, coconut and caramel bits.
  • Using ice cream or large cookie scoop, (¼ cup or 4 tablespoons worth) and scoop dough and place at least 2 inches apart on lined pan.
  • Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until cookie edges are lightly golden and the middles are set. Do not over bake these cookies. Cookies will firm up slightly while cooking.
