Perfect as a sweet snack or party favor.
Variations:
Substitute peanuts with almonds, cashews, or mixed nuts.
Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the caramel for extra aroma.
Mix in some dark chocolate chips before the caramel sets for a chocolatey twist.
FAQ:
Can I use salted peanuts instead of unsalted?
Yes, but reduce or skip the added sea salt on top to balance the flavor.
How do I prevent the caramel from burning?
Keep a close eye while boiling the sugar mixture and remove from heat as soon as it reaches a deep amber color.
Can I make these clusters gluten-free?
Absolutely, as all ingredients are naturally gluten-free. Just ensure your peanuts and cream are certified gluten-free if needed.
