Dry Roasted Peanut Brittle
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1 1/4 cups dry roasted unsalted peanuts
1 tablespoon butter or margarine
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
Generously grease baking sheet. In 2 quart microwave-proof bowl, combine
sugar and corn syrup. Cook on HIGH for 4 minutes. Stir in peanuts with a wooden
spoon. Cook on HIGH 4 to 5 minutes or until mixture reaches 300 degrees F on
microwave-proof candy thermometer (or small amount separates into hard, brittle
threads in cold water). Blend in baking soda, stir until mixture is light and
foamy. Pour in baking sheet, spread quickly. As candy cools, stretch into thin
sheet using buttered hands. Cool completely. Break into pieces and store in
an airtight container.
