Overview
Chewy Caramilk Chocolate Chip Cookies
By Amy // Posted Mar 9, 2021 // Category Cookies
My Chewy Caramilk Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe came to be when I saw a new type of chocolate chip in the baking aisle of my local supermarket.
Cadbury has recently released their “Caramilk” baking chocolate chips and I just had to make something with it.
These “Caramilk” chocolate chips taste quite like caramelly white chocolate. They were double to price ($6) of normal chocolate chips but I felt like they tasted better and more sophisticated than normal white chocolate chips.
To enhance the caramel taste, I used only brown sugar in this recipe. Brown sugar also gives a chewier texture to the cookies.
The result? Absolutely deliciously chewy and caramelly chocolate chip cookies!

tips
1. Use room temperature ingredients
Room temperature ingredients will make it so much easier for you to cream and beat your cookie batter. Your cookies will be fluffier and softer.
2. Don’t over-mix the dough
If you overwork your dough, this can result in tough cookies. Your dough has gluten, a protein, that gets harder the more it is worked.
When you add the dry and wet ingredients together, beat it at a low speed until it just comes together. This is the same when you add the chocolate chips, stop mixing as soon as the chocolate chips have been distributed evenly across the dough.
3. Chill the dough before baking
If you let your dough chill and rest in the fridge, it allows the fat to cool. This means the cookies will spread less quickly when baking and the middle of your cookie will be chewier.
4. Customise the ingredients and method
You can use white sugar to make crispier, instead of chewy, cookies. Also, if you skip the chilling step, it may result in a more flat, but chewier cookie.

Line two cookie trays with baking paper and set aside. Prepare your dry ingredients. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda/powder, salt together to combine.
Using a standmixer at a medium speed, beat the butter on its own for about 2 minutes to further soften. Add the brown sugar and cream together until light and fluffy. Add the egg and the vanilla extract and beat until well combined.
Sift the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and beat until just combined. Add the chocolate chips and mix gently until well dispersed throughout the dough. Be careful not to overmix.
Wrap the dough in cling wrap and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes. Preheat your oven to 190C (375F) 15 minutes into chilling the cookie dough.
Divide the dough into 18 and roll into a ball. Place them throughout the baking tray. Make sure you leave ample space so that the cookies don't stick together while baking.
Bake for about 7-9 minutes or until the top of the cookie just starts to brown. Let them cool for a few minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
Keep the cookies in an airtight container and consume within a week.
