Tips:

- For a smoother dough, make sure the butter is softened at room temperature before mixing it with the flour and sugar.

- Don't overmix the dough, as this can make the dumplings dense instead of fluffy.

- Add a pinch of sea salt to the caramel sauce after cooking to enhance the flavor and contrast with the sweetness.

- Serve the dumplings immediately after cooking for the best texture. They can become denser if left to sit.

- If you prefer a stronger caramel flavor, you can replace part of the maple syrup with additional brown sugar.

- For an extra indulgent touch, drizzle some caramel sauce over the dumplings just before serving.

With their rich, buttery caramel sauce and tender, fluffy dumplings, these Salted Caramel Dumplings are sure to become a favorite.
