2 oz Butter
1/2 tsp Vanilla
3/4 lb Peanuts
1 tsp Baking soda - heaping

and candy becomes a golden brown. Sometimes peanuts commence to pop,
which indicates they are roasted sufficiently. Use raw peanuts. When
peanuts are roasted, set off fire and stir vanilla in well. Have your

immediately. After adding vanilla, pour in dissolved soda and stir
thoroughly. As soon as it is stirred thoroughly, pour out on warm
