Ingredients

Scale

Cookies:

  • 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups toffee bits
  • 1 cup crushed pretzels
  • 1/2 cup caramel chips or soft caramel bits
  • Flaky sea salt for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Cream butter and sugars: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add eggs and vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract.
  4. Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Combine wet and dry mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
  6. Add mix-ins: Fold in the toffee bits, crushed pretzels, and caramel chips.
  7. Bake: Scoop heaping tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, sprinkle with flaky sea salt, and bake for 10–12 minutes.
  8. Cool: Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For chewier cookies, slightly underbake and let them finish setting on the baking sheet.
  • You can swap caramel chips with chopped soft caramel candies for more gooey pockets.
