If you like really sweet cookies this recipe is for you. The salty peanut butter taste can be a bit disconcerting – but you could use less or leave it out I guess!
Ingredients
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/4 cup plain flour
3/4 cups rolled oats
1/2 tsp baking powder
6 jersey caramels
6 tsp peanut butter
Method
Preheat oven to 170 degrees C.
Melt butter on medium/low heat in a saucepan until it turns a nut brown colour – be careful not to burn. Remove from heat.
Mix sugars, egg and vanilla in a food processor.
Add browned butter and process again. Add oats, flour and baking powder and pulse briefly.
When the dough has come together, refrigerate for 20 minutes until dough is firm enough to form into balls.
Remove from refrigerator and roll into 12 equal sized balls. Place balls on a baking sheet lined with baking paper, leaving about 5 cms between balls.
Push half a caramel into the centre of each cookie dough ball. Put half a teaspoon of peanut butter on the top of each caramel. Form the cookie dough roughly around the caramel/peanut butter.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the cookies are brown and cooked through.
