These sticky, chewy candies are positively addictive. They'll keep, covered in the refrigerator, for 1 week. They remind me of a candy I had, growing up in Canada, called 'eatmores' or something like that (a LONG time ago). If anyone remembers the name of this candy/confection, I'd love to know it. From the LCBO magazine. Ingredients:
unsalted butter, for greasing pan |
1 cup corn syrup |
3/4 cup smooth natural-style peanut butter |
10 ounces milk chocolate chips |
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
2 cups quick-cooking oats |
1 1/2 cups salted peanuts (skinless) |
Directions:
1. Butter a large baking dish.
2. In a medium saucepan, combine the corn syrup, peanut butter and chocolate chips.
3. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
4. Continue stirring constantly while boiling for 2 minutes.
5. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract, salt, oats and peanuts.
6. Scrape mixture into buttered baking dish.
7. When cool enough to handle, butter your hands and press mixture evenly into baking dish.
8. Refrigerate 3 hours.
9. Let sit at room temperature for 25 minutes.
10. Heat a sharp knife by dipping it in a tall container filled with hot water and use it to cut peanut chews into squares.
