Several family and friends who love to cook (or just like to eat) are often posting recipe videos on Facebook. One of them shared a payday recipe, and I thought I'd give it a try. The only two variables were the salted peanuts (Bobby doesn't like sweet and salty mixed so I went with unsalted) and peanut butter chips (the grocery store was out of those, along with 50% of everything else on the baked good aisle that week). So I substituted smooth peanut butter in place of the chips, thinking it would be about the same equivalent. It wasn't. While it was plenty sweet enough, the consistency was too oily. And the peanuts do NOT stick to the mixture. So I tossed the recipes and at Bobby's suggestion stuck it in the refrigerator (which did help some).
I looked online to see if I could find the original recipe/video, and found several other variations that I think might make the recipe work better. But since I'm supposed to be cutting back/out sugar amounts, I don't think I'm going to try it again.
I'm thinking the next few days will be a new recipe out of a cookbook.
