I have never made candy before of any kind. Ok, maybe fudge. This was so easy and 10-15 minutes from start to finish. Was gone faster than it took to make. Enjoy!

1 1/2 cups dry roasted peanuts
1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1 pinch salt (optional)
1 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking
