caramel squares
/4 cup milk
teaspoon peanut butter
tablespoon corn syrup
/2 teaspoon vanilla
/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cups powdered sugar

0 caramel squares
tablespoon water
cups dry roasted peanuts (slightly crushed)
Combine the first six ingredients in a sauce pan. Cook over low heat
until the caramel has melted and stirs smooth. Add 3/4 cup powdered
sugar and stir to mix in. Reserve the remaining sugar.
Turn heat to medium high. Using a candy thermometer, cook caramel
mixture until exactly 230F while stirring often. Remove from heat,
let cool for a few minutes, and add remaining powdered sugar. Use
a hand mixer to beat in the sugar for a couple minutes. Let candy
cool for 20 minutes. Divide candy into eight equal pieces and form
each into 4 inch logs. Place on wax paper and let cool for one hour.
In a double boiler, add remaining caramels and water. Melt until
smooth. Remove from heat, but keep hot water under the caramel so
it doesn't firm up. Use a pastry brush to coat one of the logs with
hot caramel. Roll in peanuts in a shallow dish. If any spots are
not completely covered in peanuts, apply more caramel and stick
back in peanuts. Repeat with the remaining logs.
Allow to cool completely before eating.
