Return to February Recipe Index
I made some good
candy today from
a recipe my
neighbor gave
me. I think if
you all like
peanut
butter, you will
like this candy.
It reminds me of
Butterfinger
bars.
Peanut Butter
Crunch Bars
2 1/2 cups
creamy (not
crunchy) peanut
butter
2 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
1 cup white
syrup (Karo)
Cook and stir
sugar, water and
syrup until it
dissolves.
Continue to cook
until mixture
reaches 300º
exactly (very
important) Then
remove from heat
and stir in
peanut butter as
quickly as
you can using a
wooden spoon to
mix it well.
Then pour candy
mixture on a
greased cookie
sheet. It will
be very hot,
grease your
rolling pin and
roll to about
3/8" thick. (I
greased my hands
and
patted it out
some) When it is
warm, cut into
1" to 1 1/2"
squares with a
pizza cutter. (
when I made the
indentions in
the candy, I
ended up cutting
the candy with
the kitchen
shears.) Cool
completely and
dip in melted
chocolate and
place on waxed
paper until
chocolate is
set.
Enjoy
