Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup 2 sticks unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour
  • 1/2 cup caramel candies
  • 2 tbsp heavy cream or coconut milk for dairy-free
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips or dairy-free alternative
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil optional for a glossy finish
  • Sprinkles and chocolate syrup

Instructions
 

  • Preheat Oven: Preheat to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Prepare Shortbread: Cream together butter, sugar, and vanilla. Gradually add flour and mix until dough forms. Roll out dough to 1/4 inch thickness and cut into rounds. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake: Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are golden. Let cool.
  • Make Caramel Layer: Melt caramel candies and cream in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth. Spread a layer of caramel on each cooled cookie.
  • Chill: Refrigerate cookies for 20 minutes to set the caramel.
  • Melt Chocolate: Melt chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using) in the microwave in 30-second intervals until smooth. Dip each cookie into the melted chocolate and let excess drip off.
  • Set: Let the cookies set on parchment paper. You can refrigerate them for faster setting.
  • Serving: Serve once chocolate is fully set and firm.
