Happy Holidays - Microwave Peanut Brittle
Hey Guys:
This may sound a little strange, but trust me: this stuff is awesome! MICROWAVE PEANUT BRITTLE RECIPE 1 cup sugar 1 cup raw peanuts 1/2 cup Karo syrup 1/8 tsp salt Mix the above ingredients in a pyrex measuring cup and microwave on HIGH for 3 1/2 minutes. Remove, stir, return to the microwave on HIGH for another 3 1/2 minutes. Remove and mix in the following ingredients: 1 tbsp salted butter 1 tsp vanilla Return to the microwave on HIGH for 1 minute. Remove and add 1 tsp Baking Soda and stir QUICKLY; then pour onto a buttered cookie sheet... Let cool for 15-20 minutes and break into pieces!  NOTE: Every microwave is a little different in power output; you may have to adjust the cook times for the best results....

Hey Guys:
Be careful how many of your friends you tell about this peanut brittle.... Pretty soon, you're spending a lot of your holiday time making gift boxes!

Sounds like something I would enjoy. I'm a Brit, what is Karo syrup as I've never seen it over here?

John,
The taste was fantastic but it didn't get hard enough (Story of my life! ), I only had light Karo and I think that I needed to let it cook longer. I'm making another batch right now using dark Karo and upping the first two times to 4 minutes each, I'll let you know.

Had to up the cooking times for an extra 7 minutes at 3 1/2 intervals but it finally got hard, this stuff is a filling puller! Yummah!
