I don't usually use premixed cookie mixes, but these cookies are DELICIOUS and very simple to make. I will definitely make them again. A couple tips however: If you are only making a single batch (24 cookies), you DO NOT need the entire bag of caramels. I melted the entire bag once the cookies were cooled, and I only used 1/2 of it for the drizzling - and I was pretty generous with the drizzle too. Also, although the chocolate drizzle will harden and the caramel drizzle will stiffen quite a bit, the tops of these will remain gooey. Put a single layer in a tin and cover each layer with wax paper to avoid the cookies sticking together before you serve them. ENJOY!!! I will make these again for sure.
