Ingredients
2–3 sleeves crackers for the crunchy base that holds everything together
1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk adds the creamy sweetness to the caramel mixture
1/3 cup butter provides richness and helps melt the ingredients smoothly
1/3 cup brown sugar contributes to the deep, caramelized flavor
3 tablespoons milk thins the mixture for easy whisking and pouring
1 teaspoon vanilla enhances the overall taste with a warm, aromatic note
1 cup peanuts, roughly chopped brings in protein, crunch, and a nutty element for added nutrition
Instructions
1-First, line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and arrange 2-3 sleeves of crackers in a single layer to create a solid base.
2-Next, in a small saucepan, combine 1 (14 oz) can of sweetened condensed milk, 1/3 cup butter, and 1/3 cup brown sugar. Cook this over medium heat for 7-8 minutes, stirring often to prevent sticking.
3-Then, reduce the heat to low and whisk in 3 tablespoons milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla, and 1 cup roughly chopped peanuts until the mixture is smooth. Continue cooking for 2 more minutes or until it thickens, then remove from heat.
4-Spoon the warm caramel peanut mixture onto each cracker using a cookie scoop for even portions.
5-Finally, let the treats cool completely before storing them in an airtight container to maintain their texture.
