HOMEMADE BIG HUNK CANDY BARS

Steps:

• Grease a large cookie sheet with butter or shortening. Then spread the peanuts all over the greased cookie sheet.
• In a large mixing bowl put the marshmallow creme, and then set aside.
• In a large saucepan combine the corn syrup and sugar over medium high heat and stir constantly using a wooden spoon until it comes to a boil. Clip the candy thermometer on the side of the pan and heat it to 290 degrees F (soft crack stage). Do Not Stir During The Time It Reaches 290 degrees! (Trust me on this - do not stir while it's reaching the 290 degrees)
• Then remove from heat and let stand for 2 minutes (do not stir during this time - let it set undisturbed).
• Without scraping sides of the pan, pour into the marshmallow cream bowl and stir with a wooden spoon until smooth. Then add in the butter, vanilla, and salt and stir with wooden spoon until the butter is incorporated.
• Pour into the prepared pan and spread evenly over the peanuts.
• Let it set at room temperature until set, about 3 hours. You can put it in the fridge to set up faster. You can cut them up and wrap in waxed paper. After cutting them in squares we turned them upside down so you could see the side with the peanuts.

MOCK SNICKERS MUNCH BAR

Steps:

• Be sure the dry roasted peanuts you use are the salted kind, and watch that thermometer closely once the candy gets simmering.
• Spread peanuts out on a baking sheet and heat them up in your oven set on 300 degrees.
• This will warm up the peanuts so that they don't cool the candy too quickly when added later.
• There's no need to preheat the oven.
• Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium/low heat.
• Add sugar and corn syrup and simmer, stirring occasionally.
• Put a candy thermometer in the mixture and watch it closely.
• When the mixture reaches 300 degrees add peanuts and stir well until all of the peanuts are coated with candy.
• Pour the candy onto the warm baking sheet and spread it flat.
• When the candy cools, break it into chunks and store it in a covered container.
