Yummy. I may have over cooked it a bit but is was still good. I sprinkled cinnamon on it and bake it for 10 mins.

Turned out great. I added 1.5 cup peanuts more without adding more sugar. Baked in oven at 350 for 10 min with cinnamon sprinkled on it.

Oh these are so easy and fantastic. Will totally make again with adding cinnamon to coat at the end or even something spicy!!! TY

Yummy! I made these tonight and added a bit of Cheyenne pepper as others suggested. Be very careful to watch them though. I cooked them what seem like forever and kept stirring and the liquid was not evaporating. I stepped away to get a few things out of the fridge and next thing I know it had all changed over to a solid form. I smelled a few nuts starting to burn so quickly moved the pot off the burner and emptied onto baking pan without any issues. ** just be careful to watch them, I learned my lesson.

I make these all the time, I just use sugar, no cayenne. After coating with sugar, I lay in a tray and bake at 350F for about 10 mins or so, just to roast them a little so they don’t have that raw taste. Really, really yummy.

This is my recipe, I hope you try it…..they are very easy to make and really yummy to eat. I would also like to mention that it you add a little powder pepper of your choice you can have a spicy/sweet taste Thanks enjoy
