Peppered Peanut Brittle
- Cooking spray
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 1/3 cup light-colored corn syrup
- 3 tablespoons water
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups roasted peanuts
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon butter
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon cracked black pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper
- Coat a large jelly roll pan with cooking spray.
- Combine sugar and next 5 ingredients (sugar through salt) in a large saucepan; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook 10 minutes or until sugar dissolves and candy thermometer registers 325u0b0, stirring occasionally. Remove mixture from heat; stir in peanuts and remaining ingredients. (The baking soda will cause the mixture to bubble and become opaque.)
- Quickly pour mixture into prepared pan, spreading to edges. Let stand 1 hour; break into pieces.
- Note: Store the peanut brittle in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
