Step 1

Preheat oven to 410 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and sugar for 4 minutes or until light and fluffy. Scrape the sides of the bowl.

Step 2

Add eggs and vanilla and mix for 1 minute longer.

Step 3

Stir in all-purpose flour, cake flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt.

Step 4

Fold in coconut and chocolate chips.

Step 5

Roll the dough into 6-ounce large balls. Place on a parchment paper lined light colored baking sheet.

Step 6

Cut the caramels into small pieces. Place the caramels in and around the center of the cookie. This is important so the caramel doesn't get close to the outside of the cookie which may result in the caramel sticking to the pan.

Step 7

Space the cookies apart with only 4 or 5 on each baking sheet. Bake for 8 1/2 - 10 minutes or until a light golden color.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to set up for about 10-15 minutes before removing from the pan.
