We love peanuts and wanted to make these peanut praline clusters using peanuts. Pralines are a candy from the south. They are crunchy from the nuts, but are similar to fudge that will melt in your mouth.

They are usually made with brown sugar and nuts. They you add in butter, cream, and a little Karo syrup. They are rich with flavor and so delicious.

If you are looking for a quick holiday gift for neighbors and friends, Peanut Praline Clusters will be perfect.

What nuts are best for pralines?

Pralines are most known for having pecans added to them. In some parts of the United States, pralines are known as Pecan Candy. In New Orleans they often use almonds in their pralines. We love peanuts and they taste amazing in our peanut praline clusters.

If you have a favorite type of nut, it will work great in this recipe. We would love to hear what nuts you add to your praline clusters.

Do you need a candy thermometer to make these Peanut Praline Clusters?

Our recipe for peanut praline clusters is simple, and we did not use a candy thermometer. There is one step in our recipe that says to bring the mixture to a boil. Be sure that it’s a full rolling boil, stirring frequently.

Peanut Praline Clusters work best if you do not make them on a stormy or humid day. Sometimes the moisture in the air can really mess up your batch of candy and it’s texture.

Be sure not to overbeat the mixture in the pan. If you overbeat it, it can turn grainy and crystallize.If you follow the recipe as directed, you should be just fine.
