Ingredients
500 g raw peanuts
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons chocolate drink powder
1 pinch baking powder
1/4 cup water
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons chocolate drink powder
1 pinch baking powder
1/4 cup water
Where to find ingredients
Look for raw peanuts, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and water in the baking aisle or the dry goods section of supermarkets and neighborhood groceries. If needed, use unsweetened cocoa powder as a substitute for chocolate drink powder.
Preparation method
- Place the peanuts in a microwave-safe glass container
- Microwave for 3 minutes on high power to lightly roast them
- Add the sugar
- Stir in the chocolate drink powder
- Add the baking powder
- Finish with the water
- Mix all the ingredients very well in the container
- Microwave on high power for 9 to 12 minutes
- Stop the cooking every 3 minutes to stir the mixture and make sure the sugar coats all the peanuts
Observations
These sweet peanuts are a classic snack and very easy to make. The key is to respect the stirring pauses, which help the sugar caramelize evenly over every peanut.
