Butter Rum Cashews Recipe - Cooking Index
1 cup | 198g / 7oz | Sugar |
3/4 cup | 177ml | Rum |
2 cups | 474ml | Whole unsalted cashews |
2 oz | 56g | Butter |
Generously oil a baking sheet and set aside. Bring the sugar and rum to a boil in a medium saucepan.
Cook for 3 minutes, until candy thermometer reads 234F. Remove from heat and add the cashews, stirring constantly to coat with syrup.
The sugar will become white and grainy after about 30 seconds. Return saucepan to heat and remelt sugar, adding a few drops of water if needed. Watch carefully, do not burn.
When the syrup has turned a rich caramel color, about 2 minutes, and the nuts sound hollow at the tap of a spoon, remove from heat and stir in butter.
Transfer mixture to the oiled baking sheet, spreading out in one layer, separating any pieces that are stuck together. Cool completely. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
