Peanut brittle
Peanut brittle is a confection of peanuts held in hardened sugar syrup. Dominican dulce de maní also includes softer styles, so check the texture before using it as a garnish.
Caribbean uses
It is eaten as a sweet and can be broken into a crisp topping for a small fruit or yogurt dessert. Use the finished candy rather than treating it as raw peanuts.
Preparation and storage
Store dry and airtight. Break into small pieces with care; hard candy is unsuitable for anyone who has difficulty chewing or swallowing. Contains peanuts.
