🍪 Spanish Peanut Cookies Recipe 🍪

✨ Total Time: 25 minutes ✨

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups of flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon of baking soda
  • 1 cup of brown sugar
  • 1 cup of unsalted butter
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup of rolled oats
  • 1 cup of flaked coconut
  • 1 cup of salted peanuts
  • 1/2 cup of unsalted butter (for the icing)
  • 2 cups of confectioners’ sugar
  • 1 tablespoon of water
  • 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice

Instructions:

  1. Prepare Dry Ingredients:

    • In a bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups of flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder, and 1 teaspoon of baking soda. Set aside.
  2. Cream Butter and Sugar:

    • In a separate mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup of brown sugar and 1 cup of unsalted butter until smooth. Add the egg and beat well.
  3. Blend in Dry Ingredients:

    • Gradually add the prepared dry ingredients to the butter-sugar mixture, blending after each addition. Ensure a smooth and consistent batter.
  4. Incorporate Texture:

    • Stir in 1 cup of rolled oats, 1 cup of flaked coconut, and 1 cup of salted peanuts. This delightful combination adds texture and flavor to the cookie dough.
  5. Shape and Bake:

    • Drop rounded teaspoonfuls of the dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
  6. Prepare Drizzle Icing:

    • While the cookies cool, make the drizzle icing. Melt 1/2 cup of unsalted butter and mix in 2 cups of confectioners’ sugar, 1 tablespoon of water, and 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice. Beat until smooth.
  7. Decorate with Icing:
