PEANUT PATTIES

Steps:

• Mix all of the ingredients in a heavy boiler (I use my 4 quart pressure cooker). Bring to a boil.
• Turn burner to simmer and cook for 1 hour.
• Remove from heat and add 1 teaspoon vanilla.
• Beat until creamy as it cools.
• Beating is a must for it to turn out right. Spoon out into buttered muffin pan.

PEANUT PATTIES

Steps:

• In a saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the sugar, corn syrup, evaporated milk, and peanuts. Bring to a slow boil, and stir to blend once heated. Let boil until the mixture reaches a temperature of between 234 and 240 degrees F (112 to 116 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from the water and placed on a flat surface. This may take up to 1 hour.
• Stir in the butter, vanilla and food coloring once the mixture has reached the proper temperature. Spoon out onto waxed paper or parchment paper to form patties. Cool until set.

• I typed as it was written in her file from her friend. I used direct heat the whole time and had to beat for quite a while to get it thick enough to drop into patties. These taste amazing- but are a lot of effort. My Papa's favorite candy, mine too ! Good old fashioned candy !
