Ingredients

1 Cup Unsalted Brown Butter
1 1/4 Cups Packed Brown Sugar
1/4 Cup Sugar
2 Large Eggs (Room Temp)
1 Tsp Vanilla
2 1/2 Cups of All Purpose Flour(Spoon & Leveled)
1 Tsp Baking Soda
1/2 Tsp Salt
1/2 Cup Semisweet Chocolate Chips
1/2 Cup Chopped Reese's
1/4 Cup Chopped Pretzels
1/4 Cup Chopped Peanuts
16 Werthers Soft Caramels

Instructions

  
  Make sure your eggs are room temperature and this dough will come together beautifully!

Begin by cutting butter into cubes. Next, In a heavy saucepan heat butter over Medium heat to begin the browning process. Stir constantly until the butter begins to turn into a golden brown color. It will be foamy and that is ok. Once the butter has reached that beautiful golden brown color remove from heat and place it on a heat safe bowl to cool. 
While your butter cools sift your dry ingredients.
In a large bowl combine your brown butter and sugars and whisk until combined.   
Add eggs and vanilla and whisk until combined.
Add your sifted dry ingredients into the wet mixture and fold until just combined. Do not over mix. 
Add chocolate chips, reese's, pretzels and peanuts and fold until combined. Do not over mix.
Cookies need to be baked right away the dough does not store well.
Drop the dough by 1/4 cup balls or use an ice cream scoop. Using the palm of your hand press down on the cookie to flatten it. Add the caramel in the middle and close the cookie dough around the caramel. Add more Reese's on top and Bake 6 at a time in a large cookie sheet.
    
Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes or until golden brown on the bottom.
When cookies are ready you can fix the shape with a large round cookie cutter or a big measuring cup.(Videos on my insta for reference)
When you fix the shape of your cookies if you choose to its totally optional add more of your toppings on top! .
Allow cookies to cool.
TIPSCookies will look a little undone once taken out they will finish baking in the baking sheet out of the oven. Allow them to cool completely to set.
