Step-by-Step Instructions for Salted Caramel Cheesecake Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, cream together softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add cream cheese to the mixture and blend until smooth, ensuring there are no lumps.
  4. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then add vanilla extract.
  5. Whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl; gradually mix into the wet ingredients.
  6. Gently fold in caramel sauce, creating swirls in the cookie dough.
  7. Drop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto prepared baking sheets, spaced about 2 inches apart.
  8. Sprinkle flaky sea salt over each cookie mound before baking.
  9. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until edges are golden but centers remain soft.
  10. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
