Peanut Macaroons

Submitted by Chef Jean

"This is a recipe I found on an African website. It is from Sudan in North Africa. This is certainly a different macaroon recipe! I don't know the cook time or yield. To make your own superfine sugar put it in a food proccessor for 4-5 minutes. Posted for ZWT."
