TYLER CANDY PEANUT PATTIES RECIPES

Steps:

• In a saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the sugar, corn syrup, evaporated milk, and peanuts. Bring to a slow boil, and stir to blend once heated. Let boil until the mixture reaches a temperature of between 234 and 240 degrees F (112 to 116 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from the water and placed on a flat surface. This may take up to 1 hour.
• Stir in the butter, vanilla and food coloring once the mixture has reached the proper temperature. Spoon out onto waxed paper or parchment paper to form patties. Cool until set.

Steps:

• Combine and place on heat sugar,Karo,and milk. Mix well and add the peanuts and cook slowly stirring until a small amount forms a soft ball.Remove from heat and add the butter,vanilla and food color. Beat until mixture gets creamy and pour on cookie sheet to form into patties. Can be poured into muffen tins to about 1/4 inch thick to make thick sides.
• This recipe was given to me by a very dear friend Barbara Stearns. This was a family recipe , one of several she gave me. These tast just like the ones from the store if you can find them. Any peanuts will work in theis but the small white ones are what are the best to use if you can find them. Enjoy and feel free to pass this recipe on to some one else.

• Again this recipe is from another site. So I think that the soft ball is from a candy thermometer. :).
