  3. To a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and baking powder, and salt.
  4. In a separate bowl, add the softened butter and white and brown sugar. Cream together for about 3-4 minutes, or until slightly fluffy. Add in the flax egg and mix for another minute.
  5. Slowly add in the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms. Add in the gochujang caramel mixture and slightly mix.
  6. Preheat oven to 375°F / 190°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  7. Scoop out about 2 tbsp of the dough and place it on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough.
  8. Bake for 10 minutes or until the edges are slightly golden. Remove from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
