Chocolate Peanut Windmills Recipe
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup butter or margarine, softened
1/4 cup shortening
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg
2 ounces unsweetened baking chocolate, melted and cooled
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup finely chopped peanuts
Beat sugar, butter, shortening, vanilla and egg in large bowl with
electric mixer on medium speed, or mix with spoon. Stir in chocolate.
Stir in flour, baking powder and salt. Cover and refrigerate about 2
hours or until firm.
Heat oven to 400º. Divide dough in half. Roll each half into rectangle,
12 × 9 inches, on lightly floured cloth-covered surface. Sprinkle each
rectangle with half of the peanuts; gently press into dough. Cut dough
into 3-inch squares. Place about 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie
sheet.
Cut squares diagonally from each corner almost to center. Fold every
other point to center to resemble pinwheel. Bake about 6 minutes or
until set. Remove from cookie sheet to wire rack.
