Ingredients:
- 1 cup Spanish peanuts

Instructions:
-
Grind Peanuts: Begin by grinding the Spanish peanuts in a food chopper or processor until finely ground, ensuring a smooth texture for your cookies.
-
Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground peanuts with the flour and sugar. Stir the ingredients together until well mixed, ensuring that the flour and sugar are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
-
Incorporate Egg Whites: Add the stiffly beaten egg whites to the dry ingredients mixture. Stir the mixture thoroughly to combine, ensuring that all the ingredients are incorporated evenly to create a cohesive dough.
-
Drop onto Cookie Sheets: Using a teaspoon, drop the cookie dough by spoonfuls onto greased and floured cookie sheets. Ensure that there is enough space between each cookie to allow for spreading during baking.
-
Bake: Preheat your oven to 300Β°F (150Β°C). Place the prepared cookie sheets in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 15 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown around the edges and set in the center.
-
Cool: Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool completely on the cookie sheets. Transfer the cooled cookies to a wire rack to cool completely before serving or storing in an airtight container.
