Peanut Candy

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Remove the thin reddish skin from the peanuts.

  2. Fill a tin tray with the peanuts to a depth of about 1 inch.

  3. Pour the hot candy over the peanuts, stirring to coat each one.

  4. Use just enough candy to make the peanuts adhere to each other, forming a large cake.

  5. When nearly cold, cut the candy into squares or bars with a sharp knife.
