Time 55m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

2 cups raw peanuts
1 cup white sugar
⅓ cup water
1 pinch coarse sea salt, or to taste
1 pinch ground cinnamon
1 pinch chili powder

Steps:

Grease a baking sheet or line with a silicone mat.
Cook and stir peanuts, sugar, and water together in a wide, heavy skillet over medium heat until liquid evaporates and nuts begin to crust with the hardening sugar; about 5 minutes.
Reduce heat to low and continue to cook and stir, scraping the bottom of the pan to coat peanuts with syrup as the sugar begins to melt and darken to a deep caramel color, about 10 minutes. Tilt pan away from the heat as needed to allow peanut mixture to darken without burning. Remove from heat immediately when peanuts are deeply bronzed; stir.
Sprinkle peanuts with sea salt and cinnamon or chili powder; tilt peanuts onto prepared baking sheet to cool completely. Break up clumps. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.

Tips:

Choose fresh, high-quality nuts for the best flavor. If possible, use raw nuts and roast them yourself.
Use a variety of nuts to create a more complex flavor. Some good options include pecans, walnuts, almonds, and hazelnuts.
Be careful not to over-roast the nuts. They should be golden brown and fragrant, but not burnt.
The brie cheese should be at room temperature before serving. This will help it to spread easily and evenly.
If you are using a flavored brie cheese, choose one that complements the flavors of the nuts and honey.
Serve the dip with crackers, fruit, or vegetables. Some good options include apple slices, pear slices, grapes, and celery sticks.
