What's Wrong With Japanese People

Peanut Butter Cookies (Martha Stewart # 33)



Small shortbread taste of peanuts absolutely greedy terribly melting in the mouth and absolutely do!
I had already made cookies made from peanut butter ( HERE), but unlike those, they do not contain flour, so I was curious to see if there would be a big difference in texture. And I must confess that no, the two versions give very crumbly texture in the mouth.
Both say it is useless to try to soak in a glass of milk (or another course), you do not come away ...
I had at my disposal as unsalted peanuts. So I roasted and salted myself. The thing is very simple, and can provide the right amount of salt.
Just put them in a large nonstick skillet and sprinkle with fleur de sel. Let them brown slowly over low heat, stirring frequently pan for a uniform color.
Unlike Martha, who uses a creamy peanut butter, I opted for a crunch. It reinforces the crispy side and increases the amount of chips peanut.
