These are one of the best cookies I have ever made! I have been looking forward all year to make them again. I have family, friends and friends of friends requesting them. So very easy for a cookie that looks so complicated! These are definetly a new holiday tradition in my house!

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!
