Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 cup + 2 Tbsp. cocoa powder 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder 1/4 tsp. salt 10 Tbsp. salted butter, softened 1 cup granulated sugar 1/2 cup packed light-brown sugar 2 large eggs 1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract 2 dozen caramels (such as Kraft), unwrapped (Rolos would also be good) Coarse sea salt 3/4 cup powdered sugar
Directions: 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. 2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt, set aside. 3. In the bowl of an electric stand mixer fit with a paddle attachment, whip together butter, granulated sugar and light-brown sugar on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 4 minutes.

5. Scoop dough out 2 Tbsp. at a time and roll into a ball. 6. Press one caramel into the center, sprinkle top of caramel with a small pinch of coarse sea salt then fold cookie dough around caramel and salt (make sure the caramel is fully covered with dough around all sides). Shape into a ball once more then roll in powdered sugar*. 7. Align cookies on Silpat lined or buttered cookie sheets and bake in preheated oven 11 - 13 minutes. 8. Allow to cool on cookie sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool (note that the caramel will set after it cools). Store in an airtight container.
*When the cookies bake, a lot of the powdered sugar bakes off and dissolves into the cookie. So you can coat the top again with powdered sugar after baking to get a prettier cookie. If doing so, roll in powdered sugar once before baking (doesn't need to be generously), then bake them and allow to cool and dip the tops of cookies in a fresh batch of powdered sugar (so there is no cross contamination) and shake off some of the excess. If you want to do it this way, use 1/2 cup powdered sugar for rolling before baking and reserve 1/4 cup in a separate bowl to dip and coat the tops after baking.
