Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a stand mixer, beat the butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar together until light and fluffy.
  4. Add in the eggs and vanilla extract and mix until fully incorporated.
  5. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients and mix on low speed until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the chocolate chips and caramel chips using a spatula.
  7. Drop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spaced about 2 inches apart. Sprinkle sea salt flakes on top.
  8. Bake for 8-10 minutes until edges are set but centers are slightly underbaked.
  9. Cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  10. Optionally, drizzle with caramel sauce or dulce de leche for added decadence.
