Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°. Mix brown sugar, granulated sugar, Country Crock® Spread, egg, egg yolk and vanilla in large bowl until well mixed. Stir in flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda until blended. (Dough will be soft and creamy.)
Add mix-ins (such as chocolate chips, sprinkles, nuts, dried fruit, etc.) into the dough until every spoonful of dough has some of the delicious mix-ins. I used 1 cup of malted milk balls and 1 cup of chocolate chips.
Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheets 3-inches apart. Bake 10 to 12 minutes until edges are lightly golden. While the cookies are hot out of the oven, use a wooden skewer to polk four holes into the end of each cookie. The is where you will add the slivered almond for the bear claws. Cool 1 minute on wire rack; remove from baking sheets and cool completely.
When the cookies cool, top with the melted caramel to the top of each cookie. Then add the melted chocolate to the top of the caramel. Immediately add the slivered almond to the holes you made with the skewer.
