This cookies is a melt in mouth kind of baked goodies and these cookies have their own place in every Chinese New year sweet platter. For chinese peoples, peanuts symbolize the happiness.Obviously most of Chinese New year friendly dishes have peanuts in them. Traditionally this Chinese peanut cookies is prepared with roasted peanuts, all purpose flour and pork lard, but now lighter version of cookies do exists.

And these cookies are very simple to bake, i picked these beautiful gluten free cookies again from Singapore Chinese Kitchen.As i told earlier, i carried these gluten free peanut cookies to my Chinese neighbour on their new year.

Grind peanuts in a food processor to as fine as possible.
Take the peanut powder into a large bowl, add in the rice flour, powdered sugar, and salt.
