Preparation
Step 1
Place the peanuts in a medium food processor.* Process until very smooth, stopping every 30 seconds to 1 minute to scrape down the sides of the bowl, as necessary, and to give the food processor's motor a break. The mixture will be chunky at first. Then, it'll thicken into a ball, and finally, it will become creamy and smooth. The whole process should take about 8 to 10 minutes.

Chef's notes
Makes about 1 cup.
*Note:
I use my 7-cup Cuisinart or KitchenAid food processor. If yours is much larger, you may want to increase the amount of peanuts so that there's enough quantity to blend well.
