1. Prepare the Caramel Sauce:
In a pot, mix the sugar and water. Heat the mixture on medium heat, stirring from time to time, until the sugar melts.
Raise the temperature and heat the mixture until it starts boiling. Do not move. Cook it until the mixture becomes a dark golden color (around 10 minutes).
Gently pour the cream into the mixture (it will bubble). Mix until there are no lumps.
Take the mixture off the heat and mix in the butter until it melts completely and blends in. Let it cool down a bit.
2. Get the peanuts ready.
Put the cooked peanuts in a big bowl.
Mix peanuts and caramel together.
Pour the caramel sauce that has cooled a bit over the peanuts. Mix until the peanuts are completely covered with caramel.
Create groups:
Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place small amounts of the peanuts covered in caramel on the baking paper, creating groups.
Melt the chocolate.
Cut the milk chocolate into small pieces and melt it using a double boiler (put the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over hot water) or in the microwave for 20 seconds at a time, stirring well after each interval until it is smooth.
After melting it, pour the milk chocolate over the clusters.
6. Decoration (Optional):
Melt the dark chocolate the same way you melted the milk chocolate.
Pour the dark chocolate on top of the milk chocolate-covered clusters to add a decorative touch.
7. Start and give out food:
Allow the clusters to cool down at room temperature or put them in the fridge to make them set faster.
After arranging them, keep the groups in a sealed container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
