Sugared Nuts

This recipe comes from the Alabama Peanut Producers Association. It was included in a newspaper insert. My Mother makes these and they are just really, really good.

Sugared Nuts

1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup water
2 cups raw shelled peanuts (with skins on)

Dissolve sugar in water in saucepan over medium heat. Add peanuts and continue to cook over medium heat, stirring frequently. Cook until peanuts are completely sugared (coated and no syrup left). Pour onto ungreased cooked sheet, spreading so that peanuts are separated as much as possible.

Bake at 300 degrees for approximately 30 minutes, stirring at five minute intervals.
