HONEY BUTTERSCOTCH FONDUE WITH SALTED PECAN COOKIES

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.
