Peanut Meltaways

Recipe Introduction


"These remind me of the penny candies I had as a kid. I still love simple candy but often get a sugar overdose simply from the overwhelming sweetness. The honey based candies are smooth and mellow, which is great for an overgrown kid like me. Decorative candy wrappers are available at cake supply stores."



List of Ingredients




1 cup honey
1 cup peanut butter
1/4 teaspoon salt


Recipe



For the peanut butter, use the natural kind. By that I mean, seek out fresh ground in a natural foods store or, in a traditional grocery store buy the kind that has nothing but peanuts and salt. If the oil is separated at the top, DON’T stir it in. Simply pour it off, reserve and measure out 1 cup of the solid peanut butter. Stir some of the oil back in for proper spreading consistency. Regular peanut butter often has oils, hydrogenated fats and sugar. These will interfere with the taste and texture of this candy.
