Toronto Star Microwave Peanut Brittle
- 1 12 cups salted peanuts
- 1 cup white sugar
- 12 cup beehive corn syrup
- 18 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- Generously butter a baking sheet.
- In an 8" square glass baking pan, stir together peanuts, sugar, syrup & salt.
- It will not completely blend at this stage.
- Microwave on high for 3 minutes.
- Remove from microwave & stir to completely combine.
- Return to microwave & cook on high for 3 1/2 minutes.
- Remove from microwave & stir in butter and vanilla.
- Return to microwave & cook on high for 2 minutes.
- Remove from microwave & quickly stir in baking soda.
- Mixture will become light & foamy.
- Immediately pour onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Slowly tilt the baking sheet back & forth and side to side to even out the candy.
- Do NOT spread with a spoon - this will diminish the bubbles & make the candy too hard.
