Outside is very cold so I need to drink something hot! I cannot imagine better than chewing delicious cookies with a cup of tea or coffee! I have a large bottle of peanut butter in my cupboard which I usually use to make cream for sponge cakes or sauce for my and my boyfriend`s favourite Thai chicken rice dish. (Recipes are coming soon!) I have never tried to use peanut butter to make cookies, but yesterday I was so excited and started to search a great recipe what I finally found on Izbolygo `s website.
Ingredients:
150 gr flour (a little more than 1 cup)
90 gr soft unsulted butter (6.4 tablespoon)
110 g crunchy peanut butter (0.43 cup)
75 g demerara sugar or brown sugar (0.46 cup)
1 egg
half teaspoon of baking powder
13 g baking soda (bit less than 1 tablespoon)
1 pinch of salt
1)Mix all the ingredients in a large bowl with a handmixer or if you don`t have it use a wooden spoon or your hands. 2) Make small balls of cookie dough, flatten them with a fork lengthwise and crosswise as well, so you will get nice stripes on the top of your cookies. 3) Grease the baking tray or cover it with baking paper and place the cookies on it.
4) Bake them in 180 C degrees (350 F) preheated oven for 15 -20 minutes until they get a nice golden brown colour.
