1/4 tsp almond extract (optional)
1 large egg, room temperature

1/4 cup heavy cream, warmed (plus more if needed)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp sea salt, plus more to taste
1 tsp flaky sea salt
...
Or if you want regular Salted Caramel:
1 cup (199g) granulated sugar
1/2 cup (113ml) water
1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter
1/2 cup (113ml) heavy cream
1 tbsp pure vanilla extract

Rogers Test-Kitchen Notes:
Softer, less hearty texture: use 1/2 cup ROGERS FOODS Whole Wheat Flour + 1/4 cup ROGERS FOODS No Additive All Purpose Flour (same total 3/4 cup).
Thicker cookies: add a few extra tablespoons of ROGERS oats.
Important: Use a room-temperature egg so the coconut oil does not seize.
If you are a fan of anything caramel, these cookies aim to please. The whole-wheat flour adds a texture that pairs well with the chunky chocolate. A must try!

Instructions

1.Heat oven to 350F (177C) and line a baking sheet with parchment.
2.In a bowl, stir together coconut oil, brown sugar, coconut sugar, vanilla (and almond extract if using), and the egg until creamy and well mixed.
3.In a second bowl, whisk ROGERS FOODS Whole Grain Whole Wheat Flour, ROGERS FOODS Large Flake Oats, baking soda, and salt.
4.Add dry ingredients to wet and mix until a dough forms. Fold in chopped dark chocolate.
5.Scoop into 1-inch balls (or use a cookie scoop) and place about 2 inches apart.
6.Bake 9-12 minutes, until edges are lightly golden. Cool on the tray for a few minutes, then move to a rack.
7.Make the salted date caramel: Warm milk until very hot (not boiling). Add dates, vanilla, and salt and blend until smooth. Add a splash more milk only if needed to keep it thick (not runny).
8.Drizzle over cooled cookies. Store extra caramel in the fridge up to a week.
