Personal Notes:
These are the "Texas" peanut patties loved by many but hard to find.
Make great Christmas gifts!!!!

Pink peanut patties are a nostalgic candy that many Texans love…are especially a west Texas tradition. They are made with peanuts, sugar, and a few secret ingredients. They are a favorite of transplanted Texans, old timers, children, and sweet-toothed enthusiast.
This great recipe came from west Texas…the mother of one of the Torchy's Tacos founders in Lubbock.

The Dutchman, a fun store north of Hamilton on Hwy. 281, makes wonderful peanut patties. It’s a great stop to stretch your legs, shop, eat lunch, etc.!!!!
