    Ingredients

    300g peanut, grounded finely
    200g castor sugar
    250g plain flour
    200ml oil (use sparingly and use only enough to bind the mixture, around 150ml- 170ml)
    1 teaspoon salt
     handful peanuts, halved
    1 beaten egg (  for egg wash)




     Method
     1.  Sift flour, salt and sugar into the peanut mixture.  Mix and combine well.

     2.  Drizzle half of the oil to the bowl, hand knead to mix it well.

     3.  Pour the remaining oil, still kneading until sugar is melted.  Roll to a ball, a tablespoon for each ( if crumble, add oil). Put the halved peanut on top of each ball, finish with egg wash.

     4.  Bake in pre-heated oven for 17 minutes or, until golden brown.
