Candy's Microwave Peanut Brittle
INGREDIENTS:
- l cup sugar
- 1/2 cup white Karo syrup
- 1/8 tsp. salt
- 1/2 cup dry roasted peanuts
- 1 tsp. margarine
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1 tsp. vanilla
PREPARATION:
Mix sugar, karo, and salt, cook in microwave for about 4 minutes,
or just until amber colored. Remove from oven (it's very hot,
be very careful) and add peanuts, cook about l to 2 minutes
more, remove from oven add the margarine, baking soda, and vanilla
all at once, and mix thoroughly, spread on a cookie sheet that
has been sprayed with Pam. Spread out on cookie sheet, ( this
sets up quickly). Cool, then break into pieces and put in jar,
with tight fitting lid. My microwave is 1000 watts, so I really
don't leave my brittle in too long.I make this all the time,
it is very easy and delicious. I usually take the margarine,
baking soda, and vanilla and put it together in a bowl, so I
can work quickly with it. I also spray my pan in advance, so
that it will be ready for me.
