  3. Slowly add both granulated and brown sugars, mixing until well combined. Then beat in the eggs, one at a time.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour and baking soda; gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  5. Gently fold in the salted caramel sauce until just swirled through the dough.
  6. Use a cookie scoop to portion out balls of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving space in between.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes until edges are lightly golden.
  8. Sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt over each cookie while still warm.
