What You'll Need

1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened

1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
24 chocolate-covered caramel candies (see Note)
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Sea salt for garnish

What to Do

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a large bowl, beat butter, confectioners' sugar, and vanilla. Add flour and salt and mix until a soft dough forms. (If dough is dry, add 1 tablespoon milk.)
Wrap a tablespoon of dough around each chocolate candy and place on baking sheet. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until light brown on bottom. Let cool 20 minutes.
Place chocolate chips in microwaveable bowl and microwave 60 to 90 seconds, stirring until smooth. Dip top of each cookie in chocolate and place back on baking sheet. Sprinkle immediately with sea salt. Let cool.
