BEWARE: These are affectionately known as 'Brick Biscuits'. Delicious, but do NOT expect light-n-fluffy. This is serious stuff. Proceed with caution.
The process is: make oatmeal biscuits with a dent in the middle, heap in toasted peanuts in caramel sauce, then top with chocolate.
Biscuits: Cream 210g softened butter, 1/2 cup sugar and 1/4 cup brown sugar. Add 1 egg, vanilla essence, and beat. Add 1 cup plain flour, 1 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp salt and 2 1/2 (yes 2.5) cups of rolled oats. Combine. Roll into 16 balls and squish lightly onto baking trays, leaving expansion room. Bake for 10 minutes, then take out of the oven and make an indent in each biscuit centre, then return to oven for another 5-8 minutes. Allow to cool.
Meanwhile caramelize 1/2 cup sugar with a couple of tbsp water - microwave's fine. Add 50g butter and 1/4 cup cream, cook again until it goes good and caramelly. Dump in 1 cup of plain roasted peanuts. Spoon into the indents into the cookies.
You can drizzle melted chocolate on top but oponions are divided on this.
