Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, mixing until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
Fold in the chocolate chips.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove cookies from the oven and immediately drizzle with warm caramel sauce.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
