How to Making the Panera Kitchen Sink Cookie
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment.
Cream butter and sugars together.
Add egg and vanilla and mix thoroughly.
Measure dry ingredients together.
Add to butter and egg mixture and mix until just combined.
Fold chocolate chips and chopped chocolate into the batter.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
Form dough into 8 balls, well-spaced between 2 parchment-lined baking sheets.
Press the dough balls into your bowl of caramel bits, and then sprinkle with sea salt.
Bake for 11-14 minutes, removing when the cookies are just browning around the edge and just set on top to maintain a gooey center. For crisper cookies, bake for an additional 3-5 minutes.
Let cool on baking sheet for 10 minutes before removing and allow to cool on a cooling rack for another 20 minutes.
