Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup honey
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 cups roasted peanuts or any other nuts of your choice

Instructions
 

Step 1: Prepare The Ingredients

  • Before you begin, make sure you have all the ingredients ready. Measure the honey, sugar, and nuts precisely to ensure the perfect balance of flavors.

Step 2: Melt The Honey And Sugar

  • In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the honey and sugar. Stir gently until the sugar dissolves completely. Use a candy thermometer to monitor the temperature; you want it to reach around 270°F (132°C).

Step 3: Add The Nuts

  • Carefully fold in the roasted nuts once the honey-sugar mixture reaches the desired temperature. Ensure that every nut is evenly coated.

Step 4: Shape The Candy

  • Pour the mixture onto a greased baking sheet or a silicone mat. Allow it to cool slightly until it’s safe to handle. Grease your hands with butter or oil to prevent sticking, and then stretch and fold the candy until it forms a long, thin log.

Step 5: Let It Cool

  • Allow the candy log to cool completely. Once cooled, use a sharp knife to cut it into bite-sized pieces. Your homemade Big Hunk Candy is now ready to be enjoyed!
