Equipment

  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Saucepan
  • Knife
  • Baking dish
  • Food spray
  • Candy thermometer

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Light corn syrup
  • 1 tsp. Baking soda
  • ½ cup Unsalted butter
  • 1 cup Maple syrup
  • 1 cup Granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp. Pure vanilla extract

  • Cook until the sugar dissolves completely, stirring occasionally.
  • Increase the heat and boil the mixture until the temperature reaches 300°F degrees. You can use a candy thermometer for that purpose.
  • Once the heat reaches 300°F degrees, add the butter, vanilla extract, and baking soda.
  • Stir the mixture again before adding the roasted peanuts.
  • Stir well, and make sure that the peanuts are evenly coated in the candy mixture.

  • Transfer the dessert to a cutting board and cut into bite-sized shapes.

Notes

  • Have patience — The Maple Nut Goodies Recipe clearly states that you should allow the candies to cool for an hour, and it can’t be overstated how important that is. This resting is essential for better cuts and a smoother texture.
 
  • Have fun — While some people go with bars, some prefer squares. The shape of candies is completely up to you. Don’t be afraid to try out different shapes.
