Made with the typical Swedish Daim chocolate bars, these ultra soft and chewy cookies oozing with caramel and milk chocolate are beyond perfection.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/4 sticks (150g) unsalted butter
  • 2 cups + 2 Tablespoons (300g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 3/4 cup (150g) light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup (100g) caster sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 2 Tablespoons (30 ml) milk
  • 5 Daim bars (each weighing 28g/1oz), roughly chopped

Instructions

  1. Melt butter and set aside to cool down.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda, vanilla and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, combine both sugars with the cooled, melted butter, and stir well until no lumps remain. Add in the egg, egg yolk and milk well.
  4. Pour the dry ingredients into the liquid ingredients, mixing until everything is incorporated. Add the Daim pieces and mix to combine.
  5. Cover the bowl with clingfilm, place in the refrigerator and let chill for about 2 hours.
  6. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  7. Once the dough has chilled, remove it from the refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes before using it.
  8. Form the dough into balls and place onto the baking tray, leaving enough space between each.
  9. Bake for about 8-10 minutes or until just golden while still looking slightly under-cooked inside (it’s normal). Remove from the oven and sprinkle some additional sea salt on top. Let cool for one minute onto the baking tray, then transfer to a cooling rack and let cool completely.
