Here's an easy one, which is a family favorite.
Peanut Brittle
-- Ingredients --
1 C. Spanish peanuts
1 C. white sugar
1/2 C. light corn syrup
1 T. butter
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1/8 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. baking soda
-- Method --
Mix well the first three ingredients in a large glass bowl. Microwave
for 4 minutes on high**. Stir well. Microwave for another 4 minutes
on high**.
To the above mixture, add the butter, vanilla extract, and salt.
Microwave two more minutes.
Add the baking soda and stir rapidly.
Pour quickly into a 9" x 13" buttered pan.
When cool, remove and break into pieces.
**Note: the temperature at which to set your microwave varies
according to its maximum power. If your microwave is 700
watts, as mine is, I suggest that you use a slightly lower
setting, such as medium high, or you may have trouble with
the mixture burning.
