I used the term peanut brittle as this will be better understood. We call it chikki. I wrote about the order I had placed and it has arrived. This peanut brittle is made with jaggery which is healtheir tha sugar
There are a total of 75 pieces neatly wrapped. They are quite easy on the teeth though brittle.
I have already had a few and feel like having more. I must keep my craving in check.

I love them but have to restrict myself due to my diabetes. A very healthy choice of snacking especially in this season. It's good for bone health. Enjoy it.

I haven't had these in a while, but I remember how delicious they were. Good to know they're easy on the teeth, I guess it's the jaggery that makes it softer than sugar based brittle.

@allknowing Oh, that certainly helps make them easier to bite.

Oh, chikki sounds absolutely delicious! Using jaggery instead of regular sugar makes it such a healthier and more flavorful treat. It’s amazing how something so simple—peanuts and jaggery—can turn into something so addictive. I can totally understand why you’re tempted to keep eating more! ??
75 pieces sounds like a lot, but I’m sure they’ll disappear faster than you think, especially if they’re as soft and satisfying as you describe. It’s great that they arrived well-packaged too, so they stay fresh and intact.
How do you usually enjoy your chikki? Do you have it as a snack with tea, or do you save it for special occasions? Either way, it sounds like a treat worth savoring (even if it’s hard to resist eating them all at once!). ???

I munch it and not necessarily while having tea.
That was sure an eulogy for the simple chikki
