In a large mixing bowl, beat together the butter and peanut butter.

Add the beaten egg, a little at a time, beating well after each addition until it is thoroughly combined.
Sieve the flour, baking powder, mixed spices, and salt into the peanut butter mixture.
Add the chopped peanuts and bring all the ingredients together to form a soft dough. Wrap the dough in clingfilm and chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.

Form the dough into 20 balls and place them on a lined baking tray about 5cm (2in) apart to allow for spreading. Flatten them slightly with your hand.
