Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, chopped peanuts, softened butter, sugar, and salt. Using your hands or a pastry cutter, work the ingredients together until they resemble coarse crumbs.

  3. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking sheet, creating an even layer.

  4. Bake the shortbread for about 20-25 minutes, or until it is golden brown around the edges.

  5. While the shortbread is baking, prepare the honeycomb. In a medium saucepan, combine the honey and granulated sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture reaches 300°F (150°C) on a candy thermometer.

  6. Quickly stir in the baking soda, then pour the mixture over the baked shortbread, spreading it into an even layer.

  7. Allow the peanut shortbread with honeycomb to cool completely before cutting it into bars or squares.

  8. Enjoy the delightful combination of sweet honeycomb and nutty shortbread with a cup of tea or coffee for the perfect indulgent treat.
