Brittle Peanut Butter Cookies Dipped In Caramel And Sprinkled With Fleur De Sel

PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES: In a large bowl combine the all purpose flour, baking powder, sea salt and allspice. In another large bowl combine the butter and the sugar, using stand mixer or hand mixer. Mix for about 10 minutes. Add the egg, peanut butter and continue to mix.
Incorporate the flour mixture. Mix briefly. Shape the dough into a cylinder about 4 cm / 1.5 inch in diameter. Wrap the dough using a plastic foil. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 180u0b0C / 355u0b0F.
Slice the chilled cylinder into 1,5cm / 0.5 inch thick slices. Place them in line on a baking tray, lined with parchment paper about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10 - 12 minutes or until the edges become golden brown. Remove from the oven and transfer the peanut butter cookies to a cooling rack to cool.
CARAMEL:nn a small saucepan bring the heavy cream to a boil. Place caster sugar in a dry pan. Heat over the high heat to dissolve the sugar. Let the mixture dissolve completely. Remove from the heat. Slowly add the hot heavy cream, stirring constantly, as fast as you can. Be careful not to create lumps. Add the sea salt and white chocolate. Continue to stir until the white chocolate melts and is well incorporated into a caramel.
