Ingredients
Method
Preheat oven to 325°F.
In a large bowl, beat granulated sugar, butter and vanilla with an electric mixer until smooth, about 1 minute.
Toss together flour, peanuts and cocoa in a medium bowl, and then add to butter mixture and beat again, just until combined.
To form cookies, shape dough into 3 (1 1/2-inch-wide) squared logs and then cut crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick slices. (Dough is crumbly, but will hold together when firmly pressed.)
Arrange cookies on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, about 1 inch apart; gently press a peanut into the top of each.
Bake until cookies take on a matte appearance, about 10 minutes, and then set aside to let cool until just warm.
Arrange powdered sugar in a wide, shallow dish and dredge cookies in sugar to coat, shaking off the excess.
Set aside to let cool completely. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
