mummyally 0 Report post Posted January 15, 2008 AishiPeanut or groundnut oil can be obtained at any of the hypermarkets around. I doubt you can subsitute it with normal oil as peanut oil gives the cookies its distinct peanut aroma/smell.My mom usually make peanut cookies for CNY and she uses peanut oil as well Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
