Thank you for the wonderful reply. I ...Hi Pei Lin,<br /><br />Thank you for the wonderful reply. I think I have a rough idea of what the final dough should be like already.

First up, sorry about the late reply. ...Hi, Nigel!<br /><br />First up, sorry about the late reply. And thanks for the encouraging words. =)<br /><br />I now don't have a photo of the dough (no, it won't be batterlike, so no worries). But I can try share one with you in about a week's time, when I make these peanut cookies again for the Lunar New Year. Do you mind waiting?<br /><br />But what I can tell you is the dough won't be sticky and wet, but greasy (obviously due to the oil used). You can stop stirring in oil once every bit has come together nicely--no falling apart, you can pinch the dough together easily and form into small spherical portions. If the dough gets too much oil, and hence a stickier dough, the cookies will probably turn out much flatter after baking.<br /><br />The above notion applies to many Lunar New Year cookies like almond cookies and green-pea cookies. =)<br /><br />Hope these help! Lemme know if you have other doubts and concerns.<br /><br />-- Pei-Lin<br /><br />P.S. Thanks for the photo shout-out.Pei-Linhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08822262778417710649noreply@blogger.com
