Brown Butter Salted Caramel Snickerdoodles Recipes

BROWN BUTTER SALTED CARAMEL SNICKERDOODLES RECIPE

Steps:

• In a medium sized bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, cream of tarter, cinnamon, and set aside.
• To brown the butter, heat a medium saucepan to medium high heat. Add the sliced butter, whisking frequently. You will notice the butter starting to become frothy on the top and brown specks will start to form along the bottom. You have to watch it closely because the turn happens quickly and you don't want it to burn. You will start to smell a nutty aroma and once it turns to a brown color, remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.
• While the butter is cooling, cut the carmel squares into 1/4's.
• In a stand mixer, combine the brown butter and brown sugar, and 1/2 cup granulated sugar. (The 1/4 cup sugar will be used for rolling in the cookies). Mix until blended and smooth.
• Beat in egg, yolk, vanilla and yogurt and mix until combined. Slowly add the dry ingredients until combined.
• Form the dough into a ball and cover with plastic. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
• Once you are ready to bake preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Measure about 2 tablespoons of dough and roll into a ball. Flatten the ball and place 1-2 caramel squares inside, wrap the cookie dough over the caramel and roll back into a ball. Make sure it is completely covered so that the caramel won't stick to the pan.
• Mix 1/4 cup sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl and roll each cookie in the mixture. Place on a cookies on a parchment lined cookie sheet 2 inches apart. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt. (I used course sea salt)
• Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges turn lightly brown. The centers will be soft. Allow to cool for 2-3 minutes, and transfer to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.

BROWN BUTTER CARAMEL SNICKERDOODLES

Steps:

• If using homemade Microwave Soft Caramels, make and cool the caramels according to this recipe. You could also use your favorite recipe for homemade soft caramels instead or take a shortcut and use the softest store-bought caramels you could find.
• Prepare them for stuffing by cutting 8 rectangles of caramel in half. You'll need 16 pieces for the cookies. Using your fingers, squish and shape each piece of caramel into a rounded 1-inch square. You could make them slightly bigger, if more caramel-y centers are desired, by using up 3/4 of a caramel rectangle for each cookie, but not more than that. Store in the freezer until ready to use. Freezing is not necessary, but makes stuffing the cookies a lot less messy.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicon mat.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, baking powder, cornstarch, salt and cinnamon to combine; set aside.
• In a light-colored skillet, heat the butter over medium-high heat until melted, about 2 minutes. Continue cooking, stirring and scraping the pan constantly with a heatproof rubber spatula until the butter turns dark golden brown and has a nutty, caramel-y aroma, 1 to 3 minutes. Be careful not to burn it.
• Remove the skillet from the heat and transfer the browned butter to a large heatproof bowl, scraping down all the brown bits with a rubber spatula.
• To the bowl with the butter, add in both sugars and whisk to combine.
• Add in the egg, egg yolk and vanilla and whisk until mixture is smooth and emulsified with no sugar lumps remaining, about 30 seconds. Stir in the sour cream until well combined.
• Using a rubber spatula, stir in the flour mixture until just combined and no flour streaks remain. Do not overmix.
• Using a 3 tablespoon-measure ice cream scoop with a release mechanism, scoop out the dough onto the lined baking sheet, forming 16 equal dough balls. If the dough feels too soft or warm to scoop, cover and refrigerate for about ½ an hour until scoopable.
• Using the back of a wooden spoon handle or your thumb, make a deep indentation into each dough ball.
• Take the caramel candies out of the freezer and place one inside each indentation of every dough ball. Gather the dough up over the caramels to completely cover them. Roll the dough into smooth balls, making sure the caramels are completely wrapped inside and nothing is peaking out.
• Combine topping ingredients (the granulated sugar and cinnamon) in a small bowl. Roll the cookie dough balls into the cinnamon-sugar topping and place on the prepared baking sheet.
• You could bake the cookies immediately with great results, but they'll spread less and turn out even thicker, if you chill them. To chill, loosely cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 4 days, then either bake right away or transfer to a large zipper lock bag and freeze for up to 1 month.*
• Fifteen minutes before you're ready to bake, heat the oven to 350F/180C and adjust oven rack to middle position.
• Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicon mat. Place 8 cookie balls per sheet, spacing them at least 2 inches apart.
• Bake until the cookies flatten with a slight dome, no longer have a hump in the middle, and the outer edges start to set yet centers are soft and puffy, 9 to 11 minutes. The centers will feel undone, but they shouldn't be shiny or sticky. DO NOT OVERBAKE or you'll get hard cookies. The cookies will continue to bake after they come out of the oven from the residual heat of the baking sheet.
• Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for at least 15 minutes before serving. Or cool completely then store in an airtight container.

You have to watch it closely because the turn happens quickly and you don't want it to burn. You will start to smell a nutty aroma and once it turns to a brown color, remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature. While the butter is cooling, cut the carmel squares into ¼'s. In a stand mixer, combine the brown butter and brown sugar, and ½ cup granulated sugar. (The ¼ cup sugar will be used for rolling in the cookies). Mix until blended and smooth. Beat in egg, yolk, vanilla and yogurt and mix until combined. Slowly add the dry ingredients until combined. Form the dough into a ball and cover with plastic. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or overnight. Once you are ready to bake preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Measure about 2 tablespoons of dough and roll into a ball.

SALTED CARAMEL SNICKERDOODLES

Steps:

• Make the snickerdoodle cookies: Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Whisk together the flour, cream of tartar and kosher salt in a medium bowl until evenly combined. Whisk 1 cup of the sugar, the butter, vanilla and egg together in a large bowl until well combined. Pour in the flour mixture and stir with a spoon until the dough just combines.
• Stir together the remaining 1/4 cup sugar and the cinnamon in a small bowl. Using a 1/2-ounce ice cream scoop or a tablespoon, portion and roll the dough into 30 (1-inch) balls. Roll each ball in the cinnamon-sugar to coat, and then transfer to the prepared baking sheets, spacing the balls 2 inches apart. Using the end of a wooden spoon or your index finger, press each dough ball in the center to create a deep divot. Refrigerate the dough balls on the baking sheets for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Bake the cookies, rotating the baking sheets front to back and top to bottom halfway through, until light golden brown on the bottom, about 12 minutes. Let the cookies cool for 1 minute on the baking sheets, and then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Make the salted caramel filling: Pour the sugar in a small saucepan and place over medium heat. Cook the sugar, stirring occasionally, until it turns liquid and deep amber brown. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the butter until smooth. Add the cream and kosher salt and stir until incorporated. Fill the divot in each cookie with the hot caramel and sprinkle with sea salt. Let the caramel cool for 30 minutes to set before serving.
