3/4 cup Powdered Sugar
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 egg
A few drops vanilla essence

3/4 cup roughly ground peanuts for coating


Method:

Sieve flour with baking powder twice.

Cream butter and sugar. Then add eggs together beat till fluffy.

Gradually add flour then the peanuts.

Add vanilla essence. Knead the dough lightly with hands.

If too soft keep it in the fridge to become hard.

Make small lemon size balls. Then roll them in peanuts and decorate each with a cherry half on top.

Place the balls on a back of greased tray.
