👨‍🍳 作り方

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8x8 inch baking pan.

   💡 プロのコツ: Lining the pan with parchment paper can make removal easier.
2. 2

   In a food processor, pulse the roasted peanuts until they are coarsely ground. Be careful not to over-process into a paste.

3. 3

   In a saucepan, combine sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Bring to a boil and cook for about 5-7 minutes, until it reaches a syrup consistency.

   💡 プロのコツ: A candy thermometer can help reach the right consistency (around 230°F/110°C).
4. 4

   Remove the syrup from heat. Stir in the butter, vanilla extract, salt, and optional spices.

5. 5

   Add the ground peanuts to the syrup mixture and stir until well combined and the peanuts are coated.

6. 6

   Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.

7. 7

   Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is firm.

   💡 プロのコツ: The cake will firm up more as it cools.
8. 8

   Let the cake cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares or bars.
