Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

Add the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract until combined.

Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.

Gently fold in the caramel chips and chocolate chips with a spatula.

Scoop the dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Sprinkle the tops of each cookie dough ball with flaky sea salt before baking.

Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are golden brown and centers are soft.

Cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
