Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Incorporate eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Combine dry ingredients with wet gradually.
  5. Add toffee bits and caramel bits, folding them gently into the dough until evenly distributed.
  6. Scoop rounds of dough onto the baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart and sprinkle with flaky sea salt.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are golden and centers look set but soft.
  8. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
