"Quick and simple microwave peanut brittle for irresistible crunchy homemade candy - great for gifting or indulging!"
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 0.5 cup light corn syrup
  • 1 cup salted peanuts
  • 1 teaspoon butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
Instructions:
  • Prepare a cookie sheet by greasing it, then set it aside. In a 2-quart microwave-safe bowl, mix together the sugar and corn syrup.
  • Microwave on high for 4 minutes, pausing to stir at the halfway mark. Add peanuts and microwave for an additional 3 1/2 minutes. Finish by stirring in butter and vanilla, then microwave for 1 1/2 minutes.
