Hi,
I have been trying to recreate the filling from a Reese's cup. Mainly the slightly sandy/grainy texture. But it kept coming out too smooth. Adding finely ground peanuts helped, but it was still too wet. Then I realized it was the peanut oil. There was too much. So I let the peanut butter sit after taking it out of the blender. Hoping the oil would rise to the top. I let it sit overnight. Some oil rose to the top and I blotted it away with a paper towel. But there wasn't that much. It was all still stuck inside the peanut paste.
Is there a way to extract most of the oil from peanut butter, so that it is more dry. Is it just a matter of patience?
Any help would be very much appreciated.
