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.
