Cooking Tools Required

Baking sheet, Electric Hand Mixer, Measuring cups and spoons, Mixing bowls, Oven, parchment paper, Spatula

Ingredients

  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • ⅔ cup light brown sugar
  • 2 egg yolk large
  • ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • 3.5 ounce all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 ounce freeze dried apple ground into a powder
  • 16 caramel squares

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Beat together the butter and brown sugar for about 5 minutes, until light and fluffy.
  • Add the egg yolks and beat for a few minutes. Add the salt, soda, cinnamon, vanilla and oats and beat to combine.
  • Fold in the flour and ground freeze dried apples.
  • Scoop onto a cookie sheet, about 2 tablespoons of dough for each cookie.
  • Press a chewy caramel candy in the center and cup & turn the cookie dough between your hands so that it stands tall and mostly covers the caramel (leave some peeking out the top).
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden at the edges.
