- 236.59 ml butter
- 177.44 ml brown sugar
- 118.29 ml granulated sugar
- 118.29 ml creamy peanut butter
- 1 large egg
- 7.39 ml vanilla extract
- 591.47 ml all-purpose flour

directions
- Cream butters, sugars egg and vanilla in a large bowl at medium speed until creamy. Combine the flour, baking soda, salt in a small bowl and then add to the creamed mixture.
- Stir in the chocolate chips (or chocolate chunks) the quartered caramel pieces, and the chopped nuts until combined.
- Drop by spoonfuls onto a greased or parchment lined baking sheet.
- Silicone sheets would be better too, because the caramel when baking makes them stick.

Easy to make. My husband loved them. I put the caramel candies in the microwave for a few seconds before cutting them to make them softer and easier to cut. My only complaint is the caramel would stick to my teeth really bad when eating them but I guess that should be expected with caramel. Overall, good tasting cookie. -
It's been cold, rainy and dreary today....PERFECT for baking cookings!!! Made the house smell "oh so good" too. These little gems are fantastic. What a great twist to the old fashion peanut butter cookie. I highly recommend them to everyone! Thanks for sharing, AndyPandy!!! -
Excellent cookie! My grandkids will love these. Too bad they're not for my diet! -
just made these - i excluded the chocolate chips and only put pecans in half, they stick to the cookie sheet something fierce so make sure you grease them up well, it wasnt the cookie i was expecting but they turned out well, comparable to your average peanut butter cookie with pockets of caramel in them - thanks for the recipie
