Instructions
Salted Whiskey Caramel
  1. MAKE THE SALTED WHISKEY CARAMEL: In a small saucepan, warm the granulated sugar over medium heat until the edges begin to melt. Once the edges begin to melt, use a rubber spatula to drag the caramel into the center and give the pan a little shake to redistribute the sugar so that it can continue to melt without burning what has already melted. You shouldn’t have to stir too much, just enough to cover the sugar that has not yet melted. Once fully melted and a deep amber color, remove the caramel from the heat. Slowly begin to add in the warm heavy cream, stirring as you pour. Stir in the butter a little at a time until melted. Add in the whiskey and the salt. Place the saucepan back over the heat and allow to simmer for 8-10 minutes. Pour into a deep dish or a bowl and allow to cool and thicken.
Recipe Notes

*If you caramel is still relatively thin, press the cookie dough together prior to placing it on top of the caramel to keep it from oozing everywhere. I usually press it into a disc and gently place it on top, pressing the edges of the disc into the edges of the bottom layer of dough.

Any extra caramel should be stored in the refrigerator. Once completely cooled, the cookie should keep if wrapped in a layer of plastic wrap and foil.
