Start by adding 1/2 cup of raw sugar into a saucepan.

Pour in 1 1/2 cups of beer into the saucepan with the sugar.

Set the heat to medium-high (number 7) and stir the mixture to dissolve the sugar.

Cook the mixture for a few minutes until it reduces by about half and reaches a syrupy consistency.

Once the syrupy consistency is achieved, add in 2 cups of unsalted roasted peanuts and some chili flakes for spice.

Add 1/4 cup of smooth peanut butter to the mixture and stir well until combined and thickened.

Pour the mixture onto a baking tray and spread it out thinly using a spatula.

Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F) and bake the mixture for 10 to 12 minutes until set.

Once cooled, break the brittle into shards and serve.
