BLARNEY STONES



Blarney Stones image

An old family recipe. The original notes called for a "Large Square Pan," but I tried it in an 8" pan, which did not work well - they turned out overly large. So I switched it to a 9x13" pan, but just be sure to spread it evenly (although the dough is a little sticky), or the thin parts will overcook.

Time 45m

Yield 3 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 cup milk, divided, plus a little extra
1 -1 1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 lb spanish salted peanuts or 1 lb jumbo salted peanuts, hulled

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Sift flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl.
  • Place 2 eggs in a 1-cup measuring cup and fill to top with milk (about 1/2 c, varies based on eggs).
  • Mix for 5 minutes with dry ingredients - I do this by hand the way she always did, so I'm not sure whether or not using a mixer would be good.
  • Spread evenly in a greased 9 x 13" pan for 12-15 minutes, and bake until cookies are puffy, golden brown, and cooked through.
  • Meanwhile, prepare a powdered sugar icing by combining 1 c powdered sugar with a small quantity of milk (start with just a tablespoon or so). Mix well. Add milk as needed to reach your desired consistency (a bit like a glaze).
  • Finely crush the peanuts.
  • When cookies are done, let cool for a few minutes before cutting into squares. Coat in icing, then roll in nuts. Let dry on wax paper.

  • Make sure the butter is cold before creaming it with the sugar, this will help to create a light and fluffy texture.
  • Gradually add the flour to the butter and sugar mixture, mixing until just combined.
  • Do not overmix the dough, as this will make the stones tough.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling and cutting, this will help to prevent the stones from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the stones in a preheated oven until they are golden brown, this will ensure that they are cooked through.
  • Allow the stones to cool completely before storing them in an airtight container.
