Ginny's Peanut Brittle Dec 31st 2011, 11:02 Everyone just loves my sister-in-law's recipe for Peanut Brittle. The last time I made the brittle I made it with cashews. Fabulous. Prep Time: 15 minutes Cook Time: 10 minutes Total Time: 25 minutes Ingredients: 1-1/2 cup dry roasted or salted peanuts, coarsely chopped or cashews 1 cup sugar 1/2 cup light corn syrup dash salt 1 tablespoon butter 1 tablesppon vanilla 1 teaspoon baking soda Preparation: Lightly grease microwavable glass bowl, metal baking sheet* and utensil used for stirring. Mix nuts, sugar, syrup and salt in glass bowl. Cook for 4 minutes in microwave on high. Stir. Cook** for 3-1/2 more minutes. It will be hot and bubbly. Stir in butter and vanilla. Cook for 3 more minutes. Add baking soda. (It will foam.) Pour onto cookie sheet. Slightly shake sheet so that it’ll spread out a little. Once cool, break into small pieces. Keep in an airtight container. *When greasing the metal pan, I'm going to use butter or margarine. It's strange having spray grease on the bottom of the brittle. **Cooking times for microwaves vary. When I made my Cashew Brittle I overcooked it slightly. The 3-1/2 minutes on the second time microwaving was too long. I needed to pay more attention to my nose and stopped the oven earlier.
