Peanut biscuit cookies

I always love cookies especially butter cookies. Not only are they simple to make but they usually delicious and can be stored for a long time. Today I bake two types on cookies using a very simple recipe. I used only half of the recipe because I did not know how it would turn out but finally it was simply delicious as well.

INGREDIENTS :
200 g peanuts
200 g all purpose flour
1 tsp of baking soda
50 g  sugar
1 1/2  tsp salt
100g Peanut oil  or  cooking oil
1 egg  lightly beaten

METHOD :
1. Preheat oven at 350 F. In the wok, add the peanuts and dry fry over low heat until crunchy.
2. Blend the peanuts into fine powder.
3. Sieve the flour, baking powder and icing sugar. Then add in the peanut powder and salt. Mix it well. Add in beaten egg
4. Add in the peanut oil and mix till a piable dough is formed. Then on a floured surface knead the dough with hands.
5. Roll the dough into approximately 1 inch balls and place on a baking sheet.
6. Flatten each ball of dough with a fork, first one way then crossing the other way producing a checkered pattern.
7. Bake for about 20-25 minutes or till golden brown.
8. Let it cool completely before store in the container.

Butter Milk Buns- 奶油包

Butter Milk Buns are very popular in Malaysia and Brunei. When I tried to look for it in Perth, I could find any. I guessed this must be another Malaysian creation. This is my 2nd attempt with the fillings. The first filling recipes which I copied from a US website was totally useless and a failure. This time I used the recipe from a Brunei friend. It was a success. The Bun dough recipe was from Kuala Terengganu, a specialty over there. The Bun was very soft even after it cooled down. The butter milk was very nice as well. Two of the fillings in my buns burst during baking but that was because I did not cover up the dough well and it leaked out. Rest of the Buns were perfect. *makes 11pcs of medium size Buns Gelatinised dough 50g bread flour 35ml hot boiling water 1.
