Salted Caramel Cookies

At Hill St HQ we love all things salted caramel, and these cookies are no exception. If you're like us and have a soft spot for caramel then these are the cookies for you. They're chewy in texture with a sprinkling of choc chips throughout - the best bit? A salted caramel flavour that will keep you coming back for more.

What you'll need

• 1 x Hill St Wholefoods Chewy Choc Chip Cookie mix

Note: You can buy pre-made date caramel, we love Date Mate. Alternatively you can make your own by combining the following ingredients in a food processor until smooth. Add almond milk until you reach a consistency you're happy with, store any leftover caramel in the fridge for future use.

Homemade date caramel

• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk

Method

• Prepare the Choc Chip Cookies as per the packet instructions.
• Before scooping onto the tray add the date caramel OR salted caramel protein powder and mix to combine.
• If using date caramel allow an extra 5-10 minutes bake time (15-20 mins total), if using protein powder bake as per packet instructions (8-10 mins).

Enjoy!
