Prep the Ingredients. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mix the Dry Ingredients. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Cream the Butter and Sugars. In a large bowl, beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients. Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, mixing just until combined.
Add Chocolate Chips and Caramel Bits. Stir in the chocolate chips and caramel bits until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Shape the Cookies. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top of each cookie.
Bake. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers are still soft. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve. Enjoy your salted caramel chocolate chip cookies warm or at room temperature. They are perfect for any occasion!
