Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup brown sugar, packed
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup caramel sauce, plus extra for drizzling
• 1/4 cup chocolate sauce, for drizzling

How to Make Decadent Layered Cookie Stack

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
4. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
5. Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
6. Drop large spoonfuls of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
7. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
8. Once cooled, take one cookie and spread a layer of caramel sauce on top, then stack another cookie on top. Repeat this process until you have a tall stack of cookies, drizzling additional caramel and chocolate sauce over the top of the stack.
9. Allow the stack to set for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Tips for the Best Results

• Ensure your butter is at room temperature for easier creaming with sugars.
• Do not overmix the dough once the flour is added to keep the cookies tender.
• For a thicker stack, use a little more dough per cookie.
• Let the cookies cool completely before stacking to prevent them from breaking.

Easy Variations

• Swap semi-sweet chocolate chips for dark chocolate or white chocolate for a different flavor profile.
• Add nuts such as pecans or walnuts into the cookie dough for added crunch.
• Use flavored caramel sauce, like sea salt caramel, for an extra layer of flavor.

What to Serve With It

• A scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side.
• Fresh berries for a refreshing contrast.
• A drizzle of espresso or coffee for a delightful pairing.
• Milk or a milk alternative for dipping.
