The Cookie

- Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper, set aside.
- Scoop out a spoon full of dough with a tablespoon, roll into about a 1 inch round ball.
- Place the dough ball onto the baking sheet and press the back of the spoon into the middle to form a bowl shape.
- Fill the baking sheet and place into the oven.
- Bake for 10 minutes, rotate the baking sheet, and continue to bake for another 10 minutes, or until the cookies starts to brown.
- Once the cookies are done, remove from the oven to cool before adding the caramel.
Vegan Caramel
- In a small sauce pan, add and stir together the creamy peanut butter, maple syrup, oil, vanilla extract, and salt.
- Heat the mixture on a medium heat until the mixture starts to thicken, about 2 to 3 minutes.
