The intense flavor of caramelized nuts combined with the crunchy texture of the cookies will make you come back to this recipe again and again. Let's see how we can achieve a perfect result step by step! Ingredients: - 200 g of butter (at room temperature) - 150 g of brown sugar - 1 large egg - 300 g of flour - 1/2 teaspoon of salt - 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda - 150 g of nuts (chopped) - 100 g of sugar for caramelizing - 1/4 cup of water Instructions: 1. Preparing the dough: In a large bowl, add the softened butter and brown sugar. Use an electric mixer on medium speed to combine the ingredients until you get a smooth and fluffy cream. This is a crucial step, as the air incorporated into the butter will make the cookies fluffier. 2. Adding the egg: Incorporate the egg into the butter and sugar mixture, mixing well until fully combined. Make sure the egg is at room temperature for better integration. 3. Dry ingredients: In another bowl, combine the flour, salt, and baking soda. Sifting the flour helps remove lumps and ensures an even texture. Then, gradually add the flour mixture to the wet composition, mixing with a spatula until everything is well combined. Do not overmix, as the cookies will become tough. 4. Adding the nuts: Finally, add the chopped nuts to the dough, gently mixing to distribute them evenly. 5. Preparing the caramel: In a small saucepan, add the 100 g of sugar and 1/4 cup of water. Place over medium heat and stir gently until the sugar is completely dissolved. Continue to cook without stirring until the mixture turns into a golden caramel. Be careful not to burn it, as burnt caramel has a bitter taste. 6. Shaping the cookies: Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Use a spoon to form balls of dough, placing them on the prepared tray, leaving enough space between them as they will spread during baking. 7. Baking: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the edges turn golden. Don't worry if the cookies seem soft; they will harden as they cool. 8. Caramel glazing: After the cookies have cooled slightly, carefully pour the warm caramel over them, ensuring that each cookie is well covered. Let them cool completely so that the caramel hardens. Serving suggestions: These nut caramel cookies are delicious both warm and at room temperature. You can serve them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or with chocolate sauce for a more decadent dessert. Possible variations: Instead of nuts, you can use almonds or hazelnuts, depending on your preferences. You can also add a splash of vanilla extract or cinnamon to the dough for extra flavor. In conclusion, these nut caramel cookies are an excellent choice for any occasion, whether you are looking for a quick dessert or a treat to serve at a party. Try them and enjoy the applause!
