THE **BOMB**!!!
Could you use a different nut? Peanut or maybe macadamia? They sound super yummy ?
For sure 🙂
How long does it stay crunchy and yummy. I’d like to make some for a fete.
We ate all ours within a day or so to be honest lol
Not certain how long it would stay good so perhaps do a test run first?
I have found in an airtight container can stay fresh for 2 weeks
Made this recipe this afternoon with my granddaughter Lily. So easy to do & tastes delicious ?. Made lots & lots, would be a great treat for movie night. Thank you Simon.
Imade this sat night but changes crushed pecans for peanuts,,and used my orange blossom riverland honey BLOOD YUMMMMMMMMMM,, will be doing this one a agine
Easy to make.
Verdict was yummy and just like we use to get as kids
I added some sea salt flakes to make salted caramel
Pro tip, make a double batch so there’s actually some left over for lunch boxes after you’ve finished ‘testing’ it
I didn’t use any nuts as I didn’t have any on hand. Also the caramel took a little longer for me but it turned out so yum
A classic brought back to life. A must try that won’t disappoint. I doubled the recipe, enough for taste testing and sharing.
I love that way of thinking Kylie 😉 Quality control IS important haha
