Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups roasted unsalted peanuts
- 1 cup Powder sugar for a more firm texture.
Instructions
- In a food processor (preferred method) or blender, add the 1 ½ cup of peanuts and the 1 cup confectioners sugar. Puree until you reach a fine and powdery texture.
- Scoop the ground peanut mixture to a cookie mold and begin pressing it down with your fingers, the back of a spatula or spoon.
- Don't be afraid to press very hard! The more compact the mixture is the better it'll keep its form.
- Remove them very gently as they break very easily. Tip: Push from the sides of the mold and not from the center. Do it a little bit at the time to avoid braking it.
Cup of Yum
Notes

- Makes about 7 round mazapanes in 2.25" size
