Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 5

9 oz (about 2 cups) dry roasted peanuts, lightly salted
10 1/2 oz graham crackers
2 Tbsp vanilla sugar
1 can(s) (14 oz.) sweetened condensed milk
1 pinch ground himalayan sea salt

Steps:

1. In a 9-inch baking dish, line with wax paper and set aside.
2. In the bowl of a food processor, add peanuts and crackers pulse until barely combined. Add sugar and process for 10 seconds before pouring in sweetened condensed milk; process until dough is formed. If wanted, add salt during the process.
3. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and compact it with clean hands. Then use a small measuring cup to smooth and level it out. Cover and transfer to the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight.
4. Remove from the dish by lifting with the wax paper and cut into squares. Place squares in an airtight container.

6. NOTE: For a twist, pour some melted dark chocolate (let it cool a little before) on top after pressing the mixture down in the baking dish. You'll be surprised how close it tastes to Reese's® Peanut Butter Cups.
