RE: Cookwithus #7 Cookie Jar: Salted Caramel, Chocolate and Peanut Shortbread Cookies
Oh my, @whattheduck! These cookies look so sinful! But they also look worth every calorie and every crumb. I like the 'happy' pocket of caramel. It seems like the best treat ... sticky goodness!
Honestly, these photos made me hunt for some caramel-drizzled cookies. I didn't dare make them because I know a good portion of those cookies will end up in my tummy. :(
Thanks for the tip on the ratio for the shortbread cookies! That makes it easier to remember.
Thanks so much @foodandart- a good alternative is the midnight snack ratio for 1 big cookie: 1 tablespoon sugar, 2 tbs butter and 3 flour, then find a caramello bear and microwave it in the package for 30 seconds in the package and snip off the end to make a 'piping bear'. Squeeze out the contents onto the lone biccy and let the chocolate set. No one needs to know it ever even happened!
Omg, what a great idea! I'm assuming the caramello 'bear' is a caramello bar ... the chocolate bar with caramel? This tip makes it easier to fulfill that craving! Will need to try it soon! =D
Thanks for the tip!
I didn't even consider the rest of the world might not have them! They're Australian koala-shaped chocolates filled with liquid caramel, they used to be all over the place in South Africa, but I can only find them at select corner shops now. I'm sure any caramel-filled chocolate should do the trick though!

More reason for me to make a trip 😜.
Will use a Caramello bar instead of something similar.
Thank you 🙏🏽!!!
