I've had this recipe for the longest time but didn't managed to find time to make it. This year, I told myself I just have to make it for Chinese New Year as I simply love green peas especially the one coated with wasabi! Delicious!
The intent was to do a trial bake in mid January but the green peas were out of stock. I finally found a packet 2 days before CNY, phew!

Your green peas cookies look delicious. I haven't got chance to bake this yet. However, this sure will my CNY cookies list for next year. :)
Very pretty flower shaped. Had never tried this yet. Maybe next year ;)
Oh you are so talented , must have saved lots of $$$ when you baked cookies yourself at home....these look so yummy , I love peas too and especially wasabi coated ones....hahaha
I have never heard of green pea cookies- I wonder if my monkeys would know they are eating a veggie?
This is so clever I love the idea! I've printed the recipe to try sometime =)
Oh u bought those batter coated fried green peas??
I thought it's the unbattered ones are used.
I'm sure they taste fabulous and crumbles in the mouth with the slightest pressure.
DG, I think many pple baked this, thus the shortage of green peas in the supermarket and bakeware shops.
Anncoo, looking forward to your cookies, am sure they will turn out gorgeous.
Pearlyn, thanks! I'm not talented since I didn't create this recipe :P But you are right about the savings part, I just found out each cookie jar easily cost $15 - $30!
Lady Ren, my monkeys love it so I'm sure yours will like them too! ;-)
Mrs Multitasker, looking forward to your blog post ;)
Wendy, I believe we are supposed to use the plain ones but since I can only find the coated ones and I was like "desperate" to bake them, I just make do with whatever I can find :P
Hehehe ...! I just made them on CNY's Eve! On my latest blog post! The shape of yours is rather new to me! Thanks for sharing!! ;)
Happy Lunar New Year to you & family!
Pei-Lin, what a coincidence! The cutter is a hand-me-down from my sister, I thought it looks like a flower but the petals are of difference sizes. Strange huh?
Must be vry delicious!
I like to munch on those green peas but not with wasabi flavor :O
