PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES
 
 
Ingredients
  • 1+1/4 cup whole wheat flour
  • 6 tbsp icing sugar
  • ¼ tsp baking powder
  • ¼ cup butter, cold (55g)
  • ¼ cup peanut butter
  • ¼ cup milk, warm
Instructions
  1. In a bowl, combine wholewheat flour, icing sugar and baking powder. Mix the dry ingredients well.
  2. ⁠Add the cold butter to the dry mix. Using your fingers incorporate the butter into the dry ingredients until you achieve a sandy consistency.
  3. ⁠Now add peanut butter and milk. Heat the peanut butter in microwave for few seconds before adding. Combine everything together to form a soft dough. If the dough feels too soft, refrigerate it for 15-20 minutes before shaping.
  4. Take two small pieces of dough and position them diagonally to each other so that they stick and resemble a peanut shape. Then, use a fork to create indents on both pieces of dough.⁠
  5. Freeze the cookies for 15-20 minutes so they hold shape while baking. Do not skip this step otherwise the cookies may spread too much in the oven.
  6. ⁠Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius and bake the chilled cookies for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
