These are really good!! I didn't use any additional flavoring - just the sugar, water and salt. Next time I would like to try a bigger peanut like the Virginia peanut size and I will add more salt each time I stir them during baking time. I might have to adjust baking time though.

This is perfect for some left over raw Spanish nuts I have from making peanut brittle.

Sounds great...thanks!!
