Holiday Peanut Brittle Recipe

Holiday Peanut Brittle

From bitsyskitchen 18 years ago

Peanut brittle-crunchy, sweet and salty. Measure everything out ahead of time because once it starts going there's no going back : )

Heat sugar, syrup, water and salt to a rolling boil in a large, heavy saucepan (3 quarts or larger). Add peanuts. Reduce heat to medium and stir constantly. Cook to hard crack stage. (300- 310 degrees F. I went to 310) Stir in butter and vanilla. Add baking soda and stir rapidly. The baking soda will cause contents to quickly increase in size. Pour onto a very lightly greased or sprayed baking sheet. Spread to approximately 1/4 inch thickness. When cool, break into pieces. Store in an airtight container.
