December 1st. Holy Moly!! This year has absolutely FLOWN by. Let's start the season with a treat that could easily be wrapped up in festive plastic and given as a foodie present!! Editor's note: you will need a candy thermometer for this one.
(no serving size given)
1&1/2 cups Sugar in the Raw*
1 cup water
3/4 cup dark corn syrup
2 cups salted peanuts
1 T. Kerrygold* butter, plus more, softened
2 t. baking soda
2 t. gingerbread spice
Bring the sugar, water, and corn syrup to a boil in a med. saucepan, stirring occasionally. Cook until a candy thermometer reads 260. Stir in the peanuts and 1 T. butter. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the thermometer registers 300. Stir in the baking soda and gingerbread spice. Pour onto a buttered, rimmed baking sheet, and spread into an even layer. let cool completely, then break into pieces.
"I need Thee, oh, how I need Thee! Every hour I need Thee."
Have FUN today, and enjoy all the people you meet on this journey!
Love,
Machete Milletti
