Peanut Brittle-EASY

Peanut Brittle
1 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
1 tsp Vanilla
1 1/2 C Sugar
1 C Corn Syrup
3 T Butter
1 lb Peanuts

1. Heat oven to 200' Grease Cookie sheet with butter; keep warm in oven. (Keeping pan warm allows candy to be spread easier)

2. In 8 C microwavable measure, mix  sugar, corn syrup, and peanuts. Microwave uncovered high for 5 minutes; stir. Microwave for 5 more minutes. Stir in butter and vanilla. Microwave on high for 4-6 minutes. Mixture will turn brittle on the spoon or spatula when done.

3. Pour candy mixture onto cookie sheet. Spread about 1/4 inch thick. Cool completely. Break into pieces. Store in an air tight container.

I was BEYOND impressed with the simplicity of this recipe! I made this at least 3 times between Thanksgiving and Christmas! It is great for a gift also or just to snack on at home!

Happy Baking!
