Today I bake peanut & chocolate chip brownies which I want to try it out quite sometimes. The recipe is taken from The Straits Times dated 18th Sept 2008. I bought the small packet for roasted peanut and didin’t check the weight. It weigh only 100g that’s why I use only 100g. As for the sugar, I cut down by 20g and afraid it is too sweet for me.
Ingredients
130g butter
160g caster sugar (I use 140g only)
2 eggs
200g plain flour
1 heaped tsp baking powder
150g roasted unsalted peanuts (I use only 100g)
100g chocolate chips
Method
1. Preheat oven to 180 deg C.
2. Cream the butter and sugar together then add the eggs one at a time beating well after each one.
3. Sift the flour and baking powder together then stir into the creamed mixture.
4. Stir in the peanuts and chocolate chips. The mixture will be quite stiff.
5. Line an oven baking tray with baking paper.
6. Roll tablespoonfuls of the mixture into balls and place on the tray. Slightly flatten the top of each with a fork.
7. Bake for around 15 to 20 mins then cool on a wire rack.
