Time 1h30m

Yield 8 servings (5 cups fondue, 24 cookies)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup pecans
3/4 cup sugar
1 1/4 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 stick (8 tablespoons) butter, softened
2 tablespoons cold water
Flaky sea salt
3 cups sugar
1 cup water
1/4 cup honey
2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup Scotch whisky
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • For the shortbread: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment.
  • In a food processor, pulse together the pecans and sugar just until sandy--do not overpulse, as you don't want a paste. Add the flour and salt; pulse until combined. Cut butter into small cubes and add to the food processor. Pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the water and pulse quickly, until a rough dough forms.
  • Turn out onto a lightly floured work surface and press into a cohesive dough. Roll to a 1/4-inch thickness. Using a knife or a rectangular cookie cutter, cut into 1-by-3-inch rectangles, about 24 total; re-roll scraps if necessary.
  • Sprinkle the tops of the cookies lightly with sea salt. Transfer to the prepared baking sheets and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Bake until golden brown at the edges, 14 to 17 minutes.
  • Let the cookies cool to room temperature.
  • For the fondue: Combine the sugar, water and honey in a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Cook until the mixture is a deep-amber caramel color, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Carefully pour in the cream--stand back as the mixture will bubble and splatter. Once the bubbling subsides, turn off the heat and whisk the caramel until smooth.
  • Whisk in the whiskey, butter, salt and vanilla.
  • Pour the sauce into the fondue pots and keep warm.
  • Serve the fondue with the cookies.

I was disappointed with this fondue. The flavor was bland and the cookies were too hard.

This fondue was a bit too sweet for my taste, but the cookies were amazing. I would definitely make the cookies again, but I would probably use a different fondue recipe.
