Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate or semi-sweet chocolate chips in the cookie dough.
- Be careful not to overmix the cookie dough, as this will make the cookies tough.
- Chill the cookie dough for at least 30 minutes before baking, as this will help the cookies hold their shape.
- If you don't have caramel sauce, you can make your own by melting 1/2 cup of sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Once the sugar has melted, add 1/4 cup of heavy cream and stir until combined. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
- For a more decadent macchiato, drizzle the cookies with chocolate sauce before serving.
Conclusion:
Caramel macchiato thumbprints are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to use up leftover coffee. So next time you have a cup of coffee, don't forget to save some for your cookies!
