Peanut Candy


candies

2 cup shelled peanuts
2 cup granulated sugar

Chop the peanuts fine. Put the sugar into a skillet and stir constantly until it is all melted. Then add the peanuts and pour at once into a buttered pan. When cold, break into pieces. The finely chopped peanuts make, of course, a much more uniformly nutty candy than the usual peanut brittle. The recipe makes about one pound of candy. : --Mry Leize Simons From: 200 Years of Charleston Cooking 1930 Shared By: Pat Stockett
