Irresistible Caramel Cookies with Eggs: A Chewy Indian Delight

Indulge in the golden, buttery sweetness of these delightful Caramel Cookies with Eggs, a recipe that promises a soft, chewy texture and a burst of rich caramel flavor. Perfect for an afternoon tea or a quick sweet craving, these cookies, which could easily be called Indian Caramel Biscuits due to their universal appeal in Indian households, offer a comforting blend of classic cookie goodness and a delightful caramel twist. The inclusion of vibrant "Gems" candies adds a playful touch, making them especially appealing to children and adults alike. Get ready to bake a batch of these Chewy Caramel Cookies that are sure to become a family favorite.

 

The foundation of these delectable cookies begins with carefully combining the dry and wet ingredients. In a deep bowl, start by sieving together the plain flour (maida), baking powder, and a touch of salt. This step ensures a light and uniform texture in the finished cookies. In a separate, deep bowl, the star of the show, soft butter, is creamed together with both brown sugar and powdered sugar. This creaming process, thoroughly mixed with a spatula until light and fluffy, incorporates air, contributing to the cookies' eventual tender and chewy consistency.

 

Next, the liquid elements and the unique caramel flavor are introduced to complete the dough. To the creamy butter and sugar mixture, a single egg is added, providing crucial binding and richness, along with vanilla essence to enhance the overall aroma. This is then combined with the previously sieved plain flour (maida)mixture, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated without overmixing. The pièce de résistance, homemade caramel sauce, is then folded in, lending its distinctively sweet and slightly buttery notes, resulting in a thick, luscious cookie dough that promises a deep caramel experience.

 

Shaping and the initial bake are key to these cookies' success. Begin by lining a baking tray with butter paper to prevent sticking. Using an ice-cream scooper, scoop out 13 equal portions of the thick dough and carefully place them on the prepared baking tray at regular intervals, allowing space for them to spread slightly. The cookies are then transferred to a pre-heated oven at 180°C (360°F) for an initial bake of 10 minutes. This first bake sets the cookie structure. After this initial period, the tray is removed from the oven, and three colorful "Gems" candies are gently pressed onto the top of each cookie, adding both visual appeal and a delightful crunch.

 

The final bake brings these cookies to perfection. After adding the "Gems," the cookies are returned to the oven, baking again at 180°C (360°F) for another 7 to 8 minutes. This shorter second bake allows the "Gems" to adhere and the cookies to finish cooking through, developing their signature chewy texture. Once baked, it's crucial to allow them to cool completely on the tray. This final cooling stage helps them firm up and achieve their desired chewiness. Once cooled, these tempting Caramel Cookies are ready to be stored in an airtight container for lasting freshness, or served immediately to eager hands, offering a delightful treat with every bite.
