Caramel Clumpies

We have been on a little bit of a Despicable Me kick around our house! ABSOLUTELY love that show! :)  The other day we were playing around with extras on the DVD menu and discovered the recipes for the girl scout cookies the orphans sell in the movie!  I was MORE than excited.. and thought I would share.  As I make them I will add a picture of the real thing.


INGREDIENTS:

10 Tbsp butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
1/2 tsp vanilla
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
a pinch of salt
2 1/2 cups rolled oats
7 oz. chewy caramels, coarsely chopped

DIRECTIONS:

In a large bowl, beat together the butter and both sugars.  Add the egg and vanilla and beat well until light and fluffy.  In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt.  Add the butter, sugar, egg and vanilla mixture and mix well.  Finally add the oats and caramels and stir.  Chill dough for 1 hour.

Preheat oven to 350 F.
Drop by spoonfuls onto parchment paper lined baking sheets.  Bake for 10-12 minutes just until brown but do not over-bake or they will lose their "clumpiness".  Slide parchment paper and cookies onto counter top to cool.  ENJOY!
