Chunky Peanut & Raisin Cookies
I came across this recipe on Julie van Rosendaal's blog. It reminded me of a recipe of Nigella Lawson's which I'd made a few times and really liked. So I had to try this one. With a few changes. Did it work? Well, there's no picture on this post becuse I can't take one - no cookies left!
Recipe:
125 grams dry roasted peanuts
125 grams sugar
3 tablespoons peanut butter
1 egg white
2 tablespoons skim milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
70 grams plain flour
70 grams plain wholemeal flour
1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
55 grams seedless raisins
Preheat oven to 325F/170C. Line baking trays with non-stick baking parchment.
Place the peanuts in a food processor with a few spoonfuls of sugar. Pulse until the nuts are coarsely chopped.
In a large bowl, beat together the remaining sugar with the peanut butter, egg white, milk and vanilla until smooth.
In a medium bowl, combine the flours, bicarbonate of soda.
Add the remaining ingredients gradually, a bit of each at a time, stirring between each addition until combined.
Roll the dough into balls and place on the baking trays. Flatten the balls quite well into discs.
Bake for about 15 minutes until pale gold in color.
Makes about 18.
