Ingredients
- 175 g plain flour
- 100 g butter, soften
- 1 egg
- 200 g smooth peanut butter
- 100 g caster sugar
- 100 g dark brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ cup salted peanuts
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, add the caster sugar, brown sugar and soften butter, and beat well to get a smooth texture.
- Add the egg and beat again.
- Add the peanut butter, and beat again for a further 30 seconds.
- Sift in the flour and baking powder, and use a spatula to bring everything together into a small dough.
- Leave the dough to rest for 5-10 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 Fahrenheit).
- Line 2 large baking trays with non-stick paper.
- With wet hands, scoop out dough to shape a ball of 25 g (0.8 oz).
- Repeat with the rest of the dough.
- Use a fork to press down on each ball to flatten it to a half a cm thickness.
- Top each cookie with 4 or 5 peanuts, then bake for 15 minutes or until golden.
- Remove from the oven, and leave them to cool for 5-10 minutes before arranging them on a cooling rack.
Notes
- If you'd like to see the ingredients listed in cups and ounces, please check the US Customary Link.
- Also, the amount of ingredients changes depending on the servings, so click on the number listed to change it to the number you prefer.
- The dough might not look thick enough, but do not be tempted to add any more flour, or the cookies will not spread the way the should.
- Simply leave the dough to rest for 5 so that all the ingredients can bind together, and the batter will thicken further.
- You can dip the fork you use for flattening the cookies in a bowl of water, as the batter might stick to the fork when you press them down. I like making a cross sign with the fork, it looks pretty nice on the cookies.
