Salted Caramel Sugar Cookies

These cookies are so much easier than you’d anticipate. No fussy details, just a simple sugar cookie and some icing. I start by rolling the dough into balls and press with a glass to flatten. Then I use a measuring spoon or small bottle to create a pool for the salted caramel icing. Finally, I melt the icing in a measuring cup so that it can easily pour into the cookie pool and harden just perfect, but a spoon also works well – use whatever you’re comfortable with.
