How To Make 8th grade spanish peanut cookies
-
Step 1Grease a jelly roll pan (10x15-inch);set aside. Roll peanuts with rolling pin to crush. Beat egg whites until very stiff, fold in brown sugar and the crushed peanuts. (sounds nuts-pun intended, but it works).Spread mixture in the pan evenly . Bake at 350^ for 20 minutes. Cool a bit then spread with chocolate frosting ,if desired..... Mark into squares while hot and remove when cool. --- Note: I like to cover the pan with quick release foil and spray it anyway. Easy this way.
