These cookies are the perfect combination of sweet and salty. I love the way the caramel center oozes out when you bite into them.

I love the idea of these cookies, but I found them to be a bit too sweet. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

These cookies were a huge disappointment. The caramel center was hard and chewy, and the chocolate chip cookie base was dry and crumbly.
