Ingredients

  • 6 tablespoons butter
  • 2 1/2 cups sugar
  • 12 ounces evaporated milk
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup peanut butter

Steps

  • 1
    Line a square 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper. Lightly brush with oil.
  • 2
    Mix the butter, sugar, milk, and cream in a medium saucepan with high enough sides to hold about four times the amount of liquid (it will boil up).
  • 3
    Heat on medium high until everything melts, then continue to heat, gently stirring occasionally, until the mixture reaches 240°F. Be careful because it will burn if it gets any hotter!

    Mix peanut butter with chile flakes and salt.
  • 5
    Pour the mixture into a heat proof bowl (or into a stand mixer) and beat well for 5 minutes. Add the peanut butter mixture and beat 5 more minutes.

  • 7
    Cut into squares. Individually wrap in parchment.
