I've never been any good at baking, so I figured I'd practice with simple things, like biscuits, then work my way up - baby steps. I found this recipe for Peanut Butter Biscuits and since I recently discovered my love for Peanut Butter (thank you America!) thought I'd give them a go.
They were so unbelievably quick and easy to make; instead of mixing I just bunged it all in a food processor and let that do all the work!
Peanut Butter Cookies
* 8 tbsp. plain flour
* 2 tbsp. caster sugar
* 2 tbsp. crunchy peanut butter
* 1 free-range egg yolk
* 50g butter, softened
* icing sugar, for dusting (optional)
Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4. Place the flour, sugar, peanut butter, egg yolk and butter into a large bowl and mix together until combined to a smooth dough.
With lightly floured hands, break off evenly sized pieces of the dough and roll into walnut sized balls. Place dough balls onto a baking sheet lined with silicon paper or baking parchment and gently press each ball with the back of a fork to flatten slightly.
Place in the oven and bake for ten minutes, or until just turning golden-brown. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack and allow to cool for ten minutes. To serve, place on a serving plate and dust with icing sugar.
