    Ingredients

    • 250 g Amendoim Banda (roasted skinless peanut halves)
    • 1 cup sugar (200 g)
    • 1/4 cup water (60 ml)
    • 1 tablespoon butter
    • Butter or oil for greasing

    Method

    1. Grease a baking sheet or a marble slab with butter and keep it close, along with a greased spoon.
    2. In a saucepan, cook the sugar and water over medium heat, without stirring, for about 10 minutes, until the syrup turns golden.
    3. Lower the heat, add the Amendoim Banda and stir for 2 to 3 minutes, until the peanuts are coated in the syrup. Turn off the heat and stir in the butter.
    4. Pour onto the sheet and spread with the greased spoon in a thin layer. Careful: the syrup is very hot.
    5. Let it set for about 30 minutes, break or cut into pieces and store in a closed container.
