Asian Style Peanut Cookies For Chinese New Year Real Peanuts

  A few weeks ago my son Aaron had to complete a project for home economics class and make Asian Style Peanut Cookies.

These cookies are probably a little differently made that the American style Peanut butter cookies made with real peanut buttter. They Asian style is made with crushed peanuts and peanut oil. These are normally made around the Chinese New Year and found to be very delightful.

 These project was a huge success and Aaron got a A for a grade.

Asian Peanut Cookies: The Recipie

This is the exact recipie we used. Enjoy!

Ingredients: 4 cups ground roasted peanuts1 cup powdered sugar (icing sugar)
1 cup peanut oil 2 cups all-purpose flour 2 tablespoons shortening 1 egg yolk, beaten slightly for egg wash.

Method: Mix the ground peanut, sugar, oil, shortening and flour together until well combined. Shaped into small balls. Use a fork or the palm of your hand to flatten it slightly. Brush the top with the egg wash and bake at 350 degrees F (180 degrees C) for 20 minutes or until brown. Remove from the oven and let cool.

Cook’s Note: You can add a circle pattern to the top of the peanut cookies by pressing and flattening the peanut cookies with the cap of your toothpaste.
