Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
14 Tbsp. salted butter
1¾ cups light brown sugar
2 cups, plus 2 Tbsp. flour
½ tsp. baking soda
¼ tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. kosher salt
1 egg, plus 1 egg yolk
1½ Tbsp. vanilla
¼ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup light brown sugar
24 caramel candies (Caramel Kisses or Rolos)

Directions:
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350º and line baking sheets with parchment paper or grease lightly.

2. Heat butter in medium skillet over medium heat until melted. When butter melts, slowly swirl the pan and continue cooking the butter until it becomes a nice, brown-caramel color. The swirling helps it brown and not burn. Let the butter cool about 15 minutes.

3. Whisk together flour, soda, baking powder, and kosher salt in another bowl; set aside.

4. When butter is cooled, mix the 14 Tbsp. brown sugar and browned butter until smooth with no lumps. Add egg, egg yolk, and vanilla and mix until smooth. Slowly add dry ingredients and mix on medium until well incorporated.

5. Combine remaining ¼ cup of granulated sugar and ¼ cup brown sugar in a small bowl.

6. Roll dough into balls using a heaping Tbsp. for each cookie and then roll the balls in the sugars.

7. Place on the baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake approximately 12 minutes or until the edges begin to brown slightly.

8. As soon as the cookies come out of the oven, press an unwrapped candy in the center of each and sprinkle with a pinch of sea or kosher salt. Cool on a wire rack.

9. Store in an air tight container.
