Directions:

  1. COOKIES: Cream together the butter, cream cheese, and brown sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until very light.

  3. Gradually mix in the flour just until a dough forms.

  5. FILLING: Meanwhile, melt the caramels in a saucepan over very low heat.
  6. Stir in the cream cheese until blended; set aside.

  8. Spread the caramel mixture over the dough to within 1/2 of the edges.
