Instructions

First make the caramel.
Place the ingredients in a saucepan over a medium heat.
Stir and wait for the butter and brown sugar to dissolve.
Bring it nearly to the boil then remove from the heat. Allow it to cool while you make the hot fudge chocolate sauce.
Place the golden syrup, dark chocolate, butter and milk in a saucepan over a low heat and melt together.
Set aside while you make the cookie dough.
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease a muffin tin thoroughly.
With an electric mixer, beat the softened butter until creamy and add the two sugars creaming together.
Add the eggs one at a time beating well in between. Add the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, mix the flour, salt and baking soda together.
Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients in batches. The batter will be quite stiff.
Add the chocolate chips and stir in.
Press two thirds of the cookie dough in the base and up the sides of each muffin case.
Pour in around about two tablespoons of hot fudge sauce in each cookie cup.
Top with a heaped tablespoon of the caramel sauce.
Flatten the rest of the cookie dough and top each cookie cup.
Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the tops and sides are golden and firm to the touch.
Allow them to cool in the muffin tray before removing them.

Notes

Eat warm for a delicious comforting treat.
Allow to cool completely if you don't want the caramel and hot fudge sauce to spill out of the cookie cup or alternatively place in the fridge for 2-3 hours if you want a solid center.
