Chinese Peanut Cookies
On my baby's 100th day (2 months ago), I decided to make the day slightly special by baking something. To ensure I do not disappoint myself, I used a fool-proof recipe. This yields a super fine textured melt-in-your-mouth type of cookies. Very easy to make and very suitable for Chinese New Year.
Thankfully they actually looked and tasted better than the first time I did this! Happy!

Method:
- Mix flour, baking powder, ground peanut powder, icing sugar and salt in a big mixing bowl till well combined.
- Toss in the chopped peanut bits and mix well. (Can omit)
- Add in 100g peanut oil bit by bit. You can stop when a piable dough is formed or add a bit more.
(For me, I added around 130g) - Shape as you wish.
- Apply egg wash on cookie top.
- Bake on a lined tray at 165C for 20 minutes or till golden brown.
(My oven is hot so I took only 10mins at 150C on top rack to prevent charring on the bottom of the cookies)
