Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened (for filling)
- ½ cup cream cheese, softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- ½ tsp vanilla extract (for filling)
- ½ cup granulated sugar (for caramel)
- 2 tbsp water
- ¼ cup coconut cream
- ½ tsp sea salt
Instructions
- Bake the cookies: Cream butter, brown sugar, and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla; mix well.
- Whisk flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt separately. Combine dry with wet.
- Roll dough into balls, flatten slightly. Bake for 10–12 minutes at 175°C until golden around the edges.
- Cool fully on a wire rack.
- Make the cream filling: Beat butter and cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar gradually until fluffy. Mix in vanilla. Chill for 15 minutes to firm up.
- Cook the salted caramel: Heat sugar and water without stirring until amber. Whisk in coconut cream and sea salt. Cool until thick and glossy.
- Assemble the sandwiches: Pipe or spread cream onto one cookie. Top with another cookie. Drizzle warm salted caramel over the tops so it drips down the sides. Repeat for all cookies.
Notes
- Store cookies in an airtight container.
- Keep caramel warm to maintain its pourable consistency.
