Grandma Mcdonald’S Peanut Brittle

• 3 cups Sugar
• 1 cup Water
• 1 cup White Syrup
• 1-1/2 pound Raw Peanuts
• 1/4 teaspoons Salt
• 1 Tablespoon Butter
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla
• 1-1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda

1. Note: I just guessed at the cooking time. It ALWAYS varies each time I make it.
2. Mix together in a large pot the sugar, water, and white syrup. Bring the mixture to 240F (this is high altitude degrees) or 250F for lowlanders.
3. Add the raw peanuts and STIR CONSTANTLY to 290F (high altitude degrees) or 300F for lowlanders, then take off heat.
4. Note: you'll have to have your lipped cookie tin buttered and ready to go BEFORE you start the next step, OK? Are you LISTENING?! Go get your tin READY! And get two ready, just in case.
5. Stir in the salt, butter, vanilla, and baking soda. The soda is the reason to have that tin all buttered up and right next to you! Bah-WOOSH goes the mixture!
6. Spread mixture onto the greased cookie tin and let cool.
7. Break when cooled.
