Ingredients
 250 Peanut
 250 Sugar
 25 Butter (optional)
Directions

Caramel preparation In a saucepan, combine the sugar with 75 g of water and cook until it reaches 116 °C. Remove from heat.

2

Cooking Put the peanuts in the sugar cooking pot and mix them with a wooden spoon to coat them well with sugar. The sugar will coat the nuts and "massage." It will turn white.

3

Finish by returning to the heat and continue to cook until a light caramel is obtained while stirring the peanuts (not too vigorously to avoid breaking the sugar coating). Add the butter and stir to thoroughly coat the peanuts.

4

Let the caramelized nuts cool completely on an oiled marble surface (or a baking sheet).

    Easy and quick I made them with seasonal almonds, excellent. My suggestion: I added a bit of sea salt at the end of cooking... for those who enjoy it!!!

    Good but failed Instead of getting crunchy snacks, I ended up with caramelized nuts that were transparent... The coating sugar melted... Did I heat it too much? How can I make it hold together? My suggestion: In my opinion, you should use a large pot to properly make the caramel.
