Ingredients
- 1 17.3 oz package puff pastry thawed
- 9 caramel squares
- 4 tbsp butter melted
- 3 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 2/3 cup heavy cream
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. On a lightly floured surface unfold one sheet of puff pastry. Using a 3” round cookie cutter, cut out circles. Repeat with other sheet.
- Place half the circles on prepared baking sheet and place a caramel square in center of each. Top with remaining puff pastry circles and crimp edges with a fork.
- In a small bowl, combine sugar and cinnamon. Brush cookies with melted butter and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
- Bake until golden and puff pastry is cooked through, 15 minutes.
Ganache Dipping Sauce
- Place chocolate chips in a medium heat-safe bowl. In a small saucepan over medium heat, heat cream until just simmering. Pour cream over chocolate chips and let sit for 2 minutes. Whisk until smooth. Let cool slightly.
- Serve cookies with ganache for dipping.
