Microwave Peanut Brittle Recipe # 99

  1. Warning - Mixture gets very hot!
  2. Use Oven Mitts and 1 quart size Pyrex measuring cups and Teflon spatulas for the mixture.
  3. Notes: I use 3 of the 1 quart measuring cups and pre measure all the ingredients in batches of 4.
  4. You may have to make a few batches to get the cook times right for your Microwave - Record the times for next Batches.
  5. Stir together 1 cup sugar and 1/2 cup white corn syrup in 1 quart Pyrex measuring cup.
  6. Microwave on "HI" 4 minutes (5 min for 600 watt oven).
  7. Mixture should be bubbly and sugar dissolved (adjust up in 15 second interals up from 4 minutes if not Bubbly and all sugar dissolved).
  8. Remove HOT mixture from Microwave and quickly stir in 1 1/4 cup raw peanuts.
  9. Microwave on "HI" 4 minutes (5 min for 600 watt oven).

  12. Microwave on "HI" 2 minutes (2 1/2 min for 600 watt oven).
