Ingredients

• 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk

• ⅓ cup butter

• ⅓ cup brown sugar

• 3 tbsp milk

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• ½ cup chopped peanuts

• 1 package graham crackers (or similar)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Baking Sheet

Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the crackers in a single layer.

Step 2: Make the Caramel Topping

In a saucepan over medium heat, combine sweetened condensed milk, butter, and brown sugar. Cook for 5–6 minutes, stirring often until smooth and slightly thickened.
Reduce heat to low, whisk in milk, vanilla, and chopped peanuts. Cook for 1 more minute, then remove from heat.

Step 3: Assemble the Cookies

Spoon or scoop the warm caramel mixture over each cracker, making sure each one is coated generously.

Step 4: Cool & Store

Allow cookies to cool completely at room temperature. Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

 Tips & Variations

• Swap peanuts for pecans, walnuts, or almonds for a different flavor.

• Add a drizzle of melted chocolate over the top for an extra indulgent touch.
