Peanut Cookies



Perfect for Chinese New Year!


Taken from The Lazy Chef:

Ingredients:

250g ground peanut powder
200g plain flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
110g icing sugar
1/4 tsp salt
140g corn oil

Egg wash:1 egg yolk lightly beaten with 1 tsp water

Method:

1. Mix ground peanut powder, plain flour, baking powder, icing sugar and salt in a big mixing bowl till well combined.
2. Pour in oil slowly and mix till a piable dough is formed. You might need a little more than the stated amount if the dough is too dry.
3. Shape into small bite-size pieces. I used a bottle cap and cling film to get a consistant shape.
4. Place about 2cm apart on lined baking sheet. Apply egg wash.
5. Bake at 170C for 15-18 minutes or till golden brown(depending on oven).
