Peanut Cookies


I know.. I'm slacking big time.. no time to blog on daily basis.. been going out for iftar.. we had iftar in a thai restaurant.. we had iftar in a turkish restaurant.. we had seafood for iftar, western for iftar and yesterday we had iftar by the pool in an indian restaurant.. i baked every day tho.. either right after subuh or after isyak.. thank goodness its "the time of the month" or i will not be able to get all things done! Today i'm home alone... every ramadhan there is one day where hb will take all the maintenance guys (abt 30 ppl fm PUB) for iftar.. Hairi on the other hand has gone to his ORD dinner and dance..



Two days ago we were in JB to get some stuff and while we were there.. i took the chance to go to one of the ramadhan bazaars.. just to.. ya know.. buy some food and kuih to take home.. i was surprised on how cheap and delish their kuih was.. i didnt wanna buy lots for fear it may not be as delish as it looked.. well i was wrong.. so very wrong.. the next time.. ahakss if hb agrees to take leave and brave the bad traffic.. i will definately buy it again fm the same place!



Anyway i am done baking cookies for this year's eid.. yesterday I gave it all to mom and she was like... woahhhhh.. alhamdullilah... i think that made her day as much as she made my day when she said that.. :op

This peanut cookie is really Peanuts lol.. u dont need a fancy machine... u dont need a whisker.. all u need is a big bowl.. a spatula or even a spoon.. all the ingredients, mould of ur choice and voila.. u got urself bangket kacang... it tastes like kuih kacang.. ya know the ones that u could buy in ur school canteen when u were in primary school.. err well back in the 70s lahh.. now u dont see these kinda tidbits being sold in schools for fear that the school kids might get fat fm eating junk food.. hmmm.. ty mbak Yuli for sharing this simple and wonderful recipe.. original recipe is fm her mom.. i love it!




Ingredients
250g peeled peanuts, toasted - i used ground peanuts
250g flour
185g icing sugar
150ml vegetable oil - i used canola oil
Pinch of salt



Method
1. In a food processor, blend ur peanuts and icing sugar till fine.. (I just add ground peanuts and icing sugar and stir with spatula till mix)
2. Add vegetable oil to the peanut mixture.. stir until it looks like a paste.
3. Add in flour. Mix well again
4. Use any kinda mould of ur choice.. cetak adonan sesuai selera!
5. Bake at 160C for approximately 30-35 minutes or until dry. (I used 150C using upper and lower fire for the first 10 mins and another 5 mins using lower heat.

Selamat berpuasa. Dah nak raya dah ni.

Biskut ni sama cam biskut mazolla kah? I am allergic when eating biskut mazolla, i will get pimples up onto my heads. Tapi ku tak peduli, sedap punya pasal, aku sental je.

Rima said...

Aisha
LOL can what.. jadi center piece and then u wrap ur plate dgn clingwrap sure orang tak berani sentuh hahaha

CTZee said...

Cantik nyer! This is one good looking kuih. I think I remembered my mom making this before but not this pretty.

So now dah habis buat kuih for Eid, are you concentrating on your kek lapis?

Rima said...

Zee
Ty.. i like it too.. unlike bangket susu.. this one the dough senang nak handle.. u tekan tekan and then u terbalik kan ur mould on ur baking tray and dgn rela hati si bunga bunga ni jatuh terletak hehe

Yep.. kek kukus order semua dah settle.. tadi did the last piece.. cookies dah settled.. next week i will start with my lapis orders.. lepas tu next wkend baru lah buat kan my mom cake pulak.. its gonna be a pretty hectic weak ahead ..

ninazsyafinaz said...

bangket kacang huh?wow ..nampak delish..bazaar mana u singgah..since ramdhan baru 2 kali je going for bazaaar..prefer home cooking lah :)

Rima said...

Nina
I went to the one yg ade giant tu... i hardly go to bazaar.. yg kat sini pun i've only been twice.. tu pun pasal nak cari baju kurung si hairi..

Yep home cooking is good but kan eversince i start baking for eid.. my hb didnt want me to bake and cook.. he knows i penat banget and told me not to waste time masak.. tu yg kita iftar kat luar.. batal kan puasa and then go out for dinner..

The Sweetylicious said...

ijayuji said...

Salam kak! dr malam td kita cuba nak masuk kat n3 kuih kacang niii tp tak de huh! last2 masuk tido ahahaha... woooooo sgt cantekkkk! lebih kurang beskut kacang mazola kalau tgk sukatan dia, sbb sukata kacang dgn tepung sama, kalau kat sini sbb panggil mazola dia org guna minyak mazola :D Tp yg ni singapore version hihihi.... sedap sekali sudah masuk mulut rasa tak mau berenti kunyah! tp tu la mana yg allergic dgn kacang kena main jauh2 :D

Where got stupid question.. i also ade berlambak kat fridge itew chocolate couveture.. love it! u can use it to do any kinda glazing.. i usually pakai if i nak buat cake.. nak buat cookies sayang lah.. chocolate compound for cookies.. i think the best way to use up is to do the simple cornflakes cluster praline kan..

Belly Good Cooking said...

Hi Rima,

Such pretty cookies.

You and KG macam twins ya? Just last week sama2 buat raspberry macs, now sama2 beli identical cookie tier.

Try to visit the bazar ramadan at bandar baru uda. it is close to plaza angsana. you will be spoilt for choices cos the whole stretch of road has all sorts of kuih muih.

Hairani said...

Hi Rima...
Ingat I tak? Saw u twice in a day! At PS n later Geylang. Glad hv d chance to chat wif u walaupun sekejap aje. Hope u n family r doing fine. Like ur peanut cookies simple n tak bnyk belanja..Is the cookies "fragile" i mean mudah pecah after bakin? Might try ur cheese cookies..what is wajisman butter? can just use ordinary butter? tks...

Nasha said...

Rima, german cookies and bangket kacang, which one better?

serene said...

wah so beautiful dis kueh kacang.

ur hb works at PUB?

where's dat JB bazaars? i wana go buy too. bad traffic? what time did u go?

untung ur mom dapat anak yang suka baking. it sure is happiness making mum happy. nx time, sonia will do same for u.

su said...

sis..help..y my kueh xboleh kuar frm mould? Kena letak flour kt mould tu ke?

anakcikbob said...

bazaar ramadhan kat sini kena tengok jugak kak.. ada yg mahal, ada yanag xsedap, ada yang mahal+xsedap. seriusly, in KL/selangor, most of them a bit mahal+xsedap compare to last year. orang2 yang membeli geleng kepala je bila nak bayar.

Rima said...

Aisha
Ahhh pi sembunyi kan itew tupperware.. harus letak tape around it and letak tinggi tinggi kat atas cabinet hahaha

I will ask my hb to singgah tmrw to send u the spekkeok.. sorry for the delay..

Rima said...

Hairani
Heheh itu dinama kan dah jodoh ahakss..

wisjman butter tu macam golden churn dalam tin.. u cannot find it here.. its more expensive than golden churn and definately much much more creamier.. u can sub with scs of cos..

peanut cookies ni tak berderai pun.. tak pecah after u bake it ..kira if nak makan harus bukak mulut besau besau ok :op

Rima said...

Nasha
Heheh how to choose... both different.. satu kacang.. satu cookie melt in ur mouth..

Rima said...

Serene
I hope soooo...

No my hb is not working with PUB.. hes with a 200yrs old german co.. oil and gas industry so of cos all the pipelines is under his wings.. pipelines and pub go hand in hand so every ramadhan hb will take all the maintainance guys out for iftar.. just to show some kinda appreciation

I went to the one that is opp giant.. i find the kuih there is nice and cheap..

Rima said...

Nurfaizah
If u overbeat em.. adonan jadi too lembek and susah nak membentuk nye.. anyway now that dah menjadi .. alhamdullilah..

Rima said...

Su
No need to letak ape aper.. u hv to tekan kuat sikit si adonan tu dalam acuan.. terbalik and terus terkeluar.. senang ajer

Rima said...

Marina
Oh ye ker? kat jb they are selling it at 3 for one ringgit which is to us sungguh lah murah.. kat sini lopes satu keping dah one dollar.. haishhh if sedap tak per!

hairani said...

sorie Rima if i bnyk tanya!! still on peanut cookies topic can i use butter yg di cairkan instead of veg oil?

Anonymous said...

Rima,
I dah buat adunan bangket ini. Kenapa ya lepas tekan dalam mould dan terbalikkan adunan tak boleh keluar, tekan kuat pun sama. Kena tambah tepung lagi ke?
I follow exactly ur measurement.
Frust betul apalagi bila tengok u pnya cantik sangat.

Rima said...

Hairani
No worries.. i had wanted to use melted butter but ended up adding canola oil.. thought i am better off with oil since peanut memang mengeluarkan minyak kannn pun.. dont want butter taste to overpower si peanut pulak

Rima said...

Anonymous
the measure is correct.. what kinda of mould did u use?

Anonymous said...

Salam,
First I used the plastic jelly mould. Tak boleh keluar, I guna pula the plastic bangket mould. Both tak keluar gak. Dah frust sangat, last2 I simpan dulu dough tu dalam fridge, tunggu bantuan you, hehehe.

Rima said...

Anonymous i wud apprecite if u cud sign off with ur name cos its easier for me to adrs u

I am not too sure what went wrong.. i hv no probs unmoulding my bangket.. i press it and i turn it and voila.. it came out .. so easy..

Anonymous said...

Rima,
Sorry banyak soalan, the dough should be macamana? Since I cannot unmould the bangket, I tried adding flour to the dough (cuba sikit je), still the same.
Adoii frust betul. Tido awal I semalam, badan tak penat tapi penat fikiran. Mana taknya dalam kepala dah terbayang bangket yang cute2, malangnya bangketnya tak bangun2, hehehe.
Memang lah u ni pandai dan sangat rajin. I selalu ikut ur blog. Apa jer yang u buat mmg berhalus dan cantik2. Ajar cikit...

NorZee

Rima said...

NorZee
Hmm actually if u were to ask me this bangket kacang is so so much easier to hand then bangket susu which i hv tried a couple of months ago.. dough dia tak berderai mcam bangket susu.. bila u tekan it will press nicely and when u take it out of the mould it will jatuh on ur baking tray dgn senang nye.. kira macam terletak gitu..

U might want to do another batch to see if u hv forgotten to add any ingredients cos this dough is one of the easiest one to handle..

nina said...

Hi there Rima!!

Selamat Hari Raya to you n family. I ni baru belajar baking and have been soo inspired by your blog.. hehe..

Thought this peanut cookie looked easy enough and soo beautiful (to impress my family). So buat la mlm ni. The only thing is, adunan tu mmg lembut, but bila masuk dlm mould dia tak nak kluar la. I ended up adding more flour baru dia kluar. But the result is a cookie with an "extra" bite to it. It is suppose to melt in the mouth ke? Cos this is got bite la.. hehehe.

I used the plastic mould i got off the bakery shop. The pattern is something like yours. Hope you can shed some light.

Thanks!

Nina

Rima said...

Nina
it looks like a few ppl ade probs with the adonan.. hmmm did u use store bought ground peanut? i pakai yg store bought and maybe thats the reason why mine senang nak tanggal dari mould ker?

The texture of this bangket kacang really macam kuih bangket yg lain.. memang ade bite and not melt in ur mouth type..

Nina said...

Hi there Rima!

Actually mine were not store bought ground peanuts, i ground them with the icing sugar as suggested in the recipe. Pasal the ones kat store macam kurang halus and tak cantik. Hhahaha..

Takpe will try again and let you know. Btw, the sicilian orange cake and choc bottomed banana cake came out really well. Have done it in cake form, cuppies and it all came out really good!

Happy Raya!

Nina

Rima said...

Ahhh tu diak! i use store bought one.. agaknye pasal tu tak a few hv difficulties unmoulding their peanut cookies.. hmmm

SOC and BBCC is my all time fav.. fav sangat sampai this year. i baked it for raya hehe

Rima

Nina CR said...

Hi there!

I have tried the recipe again recently using store bought ground peanuts. And it was much easier to get it off the moulds. It still doesnt look as good as yours, because it still gets stuck at the crevices of the flower petals, but at least it was wayy easier! And it taste really yummy!

So yes i think I shall make it again with the store bought ground peanuts!

Nina CR

Rima said...

Nina
yep .. dont know why i decided to use store bought.. lazy to grind and thank goodness or else i too will hv difficulties unmoulding it!
