Peanut Brittle |
I make this every Christmas. It's very simple and looks nice on a plate with other sweets.
Ingredients
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup white corn syrup
- 1 1/2 cup peanuts
- 1 teaspoon margarine
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
Directions
Combine sugar and corn syrup and microwave on high (normal temperature) for 4 minutes. Stir in nuts and microwave for on high again for 3 minutes. Stir in vanilla and margarine and microwave on high one more time for 3 minutes. Quickly stir in baking soda and pour on lightly greased cookie sheet. Let cool at room temperature over night.
*note: you have to do this all very quickly, especially the final step as it hardens quickly.
