Caramel Filled Sugar Cookies

Attention!  Attention!  My caramel addiction strikes again!  In an earlier post for my Caramel Crush Bars, I confessed my deep love for caramel.  My absolute favorite thing to do is to take an already amazing dessert and find a way to add caramel.  By doing so, it is not only a temptation for me, but it is truly, 100%, irresistible.  

Sometimes I ask myself why I create such magic.  Of course, the reason I do is because I love devouring the deliciousness.  The reason why I should probably think twice is because it is not good for my diet.  If I had just a little self-control when it comes to caramel, it wouldn't be such an issue.  But I must admit, that is not the case.  These Caramel Filled Sugar Cookies are a perfect example.  Sent straight from heaven, they tempt me day and night as they sit on my kitchen counter, constantly calling my name.  The soft, chewy sugar cookie is wrapped around ooey-gooey caramel that will blow your mind and bring a smile to your face.  Hoping that you enjoy them as much as my family and I do, I just have to share the recipe.
