Ingredients
- 165g light brown sugar
- 100g granulated sugar
- 125g soft salted butter
- 1 large egg, plus 1 extra yolk
- 1 tsp vanilla bean paste or extract
- 225g plain flour

- 1 tsp cornflour
- ½ tsp flaky sea salt
- 75g dark chocolate, roughly chopped
- 75g milk chocolate, roughly chopped
- 1 x 120g Dairy Milk chocolate caramel bar
Step by step
Get ahead
The cookies keep for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
- Beat the sugars and butter together until light and fluffy. Add the egg, extra yolk and vanilla and continue to beat until well incorporated.
- Mix together the flour, bicarb, cornflour and salt and fold through the mixture, taking care not to overmix. Finally fold through the chopped chocolate chunks.
- Divide the mixture into 15 pieces and roll each into a ball. Make an indent in the middle of each cookie dough ball and add a square of chocolate caramel bar. Shape the cookie dough around the caramel, completely encasing it. Place the cookie balls on a lined baking sheet, making sure they are well spaced out (use 2 trays if you need to). Chill in the fridge for a minimum of 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 180°C, fan 160°C, gas 4. Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes or until just crisped up around the edges.
