My family loved this cookie but the only problem I found was that the caramel never really set and would run if the cookies were not laying flat. I trying layering them in a container with waxed paper between the layers and the caramel stuck to the paper.

I am having the most difficult time with these cookies! I cannot seem to keep them from turning into being as flat as pancakes while they are in the oven :/ Once they cool, I'm going to do my best to work with them to keep the carmel and chocolate on top. The cookie part tastes yummy but I think they are going to look ugly when I'm all finished. Too bad, these sounded very promising!

When I took the cookies out of the oven, the indentations had disappeared. I came up with an easy fix. While the hot cookies are still on the baking sheet, use a clean cork from a wine bottle to make the perfect size indentation. Just don't push too hard and go all the way through the warm cookie. Make sure there is enough cookie to hold the caramel mix. Don't use the cork method when the cookies are on the cooling racks or else you might push completely through the cookie. Also, I substituted soy based coffee creamer for the half and half. My daughter does not like nuts so I eliminated them. This is a very yummy cookie.
