Tips:

  • Use creamy peanut butter for a smoother texture. Chunky peanut butter can be used, but the candy will have a more rustic texture.
  • Be careful not to overcook the candy. Overcooked candy will be hard and brittle. To prevent overcooking, use a candy thermometer to monitor the temperature. The candy is ready when it reaches 236 degrees Fahrenheit (113 degrees Celsius).
  • Let the candy cool completely before cutting it. If you cut the candy while it is still warm, it will be too soft and sticky. Let the candy cool for at least 2 hours before cutting it into pieces.
  • Store the candy in an airtight container. Tiger peanut butter candy can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
