Taiwanese walnut cookies are very nutty and rich. We love to have them with tea. You can also dip them in milk or almond milk. This recipe makes 9 big cookies. Just double the recipe if you need more of these delicious and traditional Chinese cookies. Enjoy!!
Ingredients:
1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup powdered sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/3 cup walnuts, chopped
1/4 cup dry roasted salted peanut, chopped
2 tablespoons eggs, beaten
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 320 F; Line a layer of baking sheet on a baking pan.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine butter, powdered sugar, all-purpose flour and baking powder with a fork first. Use fingers to mix well and form dough. Cover and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
3. Add walnut and peanut into the mixing bowl. Gently fold nuts into dough. Divide into 9 pieces and roll each into a ball. Press each dough to make it a little flat, about 2/3 inch thick.
4. Transfer dough to baking pan. Leave about 2 inches between each piece. Apply beaten egg on dough surface. Bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes.
5. Let cookies set on the baking pan for 5 minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire rack and cool. Enjoy!
