All the toffee and candy flavor without any of the difficult candy making. A good quick and cheap snack.
Sometimes you want a toffee or brittle, but are feeling extra lazy. You don’t wanna deal with candy making or driving to the store to get some.
You just need to toss the peanuts with some sugar, corn syrup, and butter. Dump them onto a baking sheet and bake!
I like adding some sugar at the end after baking for texture and a little added sweet.
