Salted Peanut Rolls
"The divinity, nougat-like center has a wonderful flavor enhanced with just enough butter and salt to bring out the richness of the candy. The combination of the salted peanuts covering the outside, along with the sweet nougat center, is wonderfully addicting. This is a softer candy then regular divinity due to the addition of the butter, and is best refrigerated...."
