Now it’s time to add the chocolate and caramel chips. Gently stir both into the dough, leaving behind about a Tablespoon of each to top the dough balls.

Use a spoon and your hands to shape and place about 11 balls of dough on the parchment paper-lined baking sheet.

Then press the remaining chocolate and caramel chips onto the cookie dough balls. This makes a better presentation when the cookies are done baking.

Place cookies in oven for 11 minutes. Cookies may look underdone at this point, but they will solidify during the cooling time.
